Athletic director Mike Bohn announced an extension through the 2027–28 season on Wednesday, a day before the 21st-ranked Trojans open play in the Pac-12 tournament. The team is 25–6 overall, holding the record for regular season wins.
"My family and I are very happy to be part of the Trojan family," Enfield said in a statement. "I feel very good about the Pac-12 and the future of USC basketball at the national level."
In its ninth season, Anfield has an overall record of 182–116. He was named Pac-12 Coach of the Year last season, when USC was 25-8 and reached the Elite Eight for the second time in 67 years.
Enfield's recent five-game winning streak over crosstown rival UCLA was USC's longest versus the Bruins since 1943.
Bohn, who has been Enfield's boss for three years, said: "Andy has continued to meet and exceeded the expectations we had set for him." “We are excited about the trajectory of our men’s basketball program with respect to the results, recruitment and development of young men on our team. We are committed to growing and strengthening our program as we go forward, and we will be looking to build on another Looking forward to the immediate opportunity to run March Madness.
USC has selected players in the first round of the NBA Draft over the past three years, including last year's Evan Mobley.
