Bryan Hodgson is in his first season as head coach after being named to the position on March 24, 2025. Previously at Arkansas State, Hodgson led that program to consecutive seasons with over twenty wins and its first postseason appearance since 1999 during his tenure.
Now in its 55th season for the year 2025-26, South Florida men’s basketball most recently claimed the American Athletic Conference regular season championship in the previous year and has made thirteen postseason appearances overall—including three NCAA Tournaments and nine NITs—alongside winning a CBI championship in 2019. Three former players—Chucky Atkins, Charlie Bradley, and Rodenko Dobras—have had their jerseys retired and are members of the USF Athletic Hall of Fame. The Bulls play their home games at Yuengling Center on campus.
“South Florida men’s basketball named Bryan Hodgson, 37, as the program’s 12th head coach on March 24, 2025,” according to information from USF Athletics Communications.
