"We are very excited about the direction of our men's basketball program under Coach Enfield and the progress that has been made," said USC athletic director Pat Haden. "We look forward to continued progress and we believe that with this contract extension, Coach Enfield will bring stability and success to USC men's basketball for the long term."
"The men's basketball staff is very appreciative of the great leadership and support from our administration and we are very thankful to have talented players in our program who are terrific representatives of USC," said Enfield. "We look forward to an offseason of continued development for our players that will set the foundation for an exciting 2016-17 season."
Enfield came to USC prior to the 2013-14 season after guiding Florida Gulf Coast to the Sweet 16 as a No. 15 seed. After building the foundation of the program during his first two years at USC, he led the Trojans to a 21-13 record and sixth place finish in the difficult Pac-12 Conference in 2015-16. USC's 8.5 game improvement during the regular season was the most by any Power 5 conference team in the country.
Along with winning, Enfield has brought an electrifying style of play to the Galen Center. The Trojans averaged 80.5 points per game, their highest number since the 1991 season and second among all Pac-12 teams in 2016, and made a school-record 266 three-pointers. USC also held opponents to 41.7 percent shooting, third-best among conference teams last season, and set the school record for blocks in a season with 182, which ranked 15th in the country.
