Providence's Bryan Hodgson hiring points to 16.4 PPG transfer move

The Providence Friars have hired Bryan Hodgson as their new men's basketball coach.

Hodgson comes aboard from South Florida, and it's a big deal just considered in a vacuum. But in modern college basketball, the former USF head coach very well might not be coming alone.

If you try to read between the lines, it's very possible to see someone who might follow Hodgson to Providence.

South Florida's leading scorer in 2025-26 was junior guard Wes Enis. He put in 16.4 points per game.

With eligibility remaining, it would make a lot of sense for Enis to follow Hodgson to Providence.

Nothing has been signaled yet by Enis, but it's certainly something for Friars fans to keep an eye on.

Enis is originally from Ohio, where he attended Miami East High School.

The 6-foot-2 lefty started his college career at Division II Lincoln Memorial for two seasons before joining USF this year.

After that move up the ladder worked out, another move for Enis could certainly be in the cards.

USF's next two best players, Joseph Pinion and Izaiyah Nelson, were both seniors. It's not clear that either would have eligibility left.

But Enis certainly does. He's played just three seasons of college basketball so far.

If he's fond of his relationship with Hodgson, he could follow the path to Providence.
