FGCU Coach To USC? Trojans Eye Andy Enfield For The Future

As March Madness continues with this year's 2013 NCAA Tournament, the latest rumor out of the University of Southern California has the Trojans targeting Florida Gulf Coast coach Andy Enfield.

According to Yahoo! Sports, USC is intrigued by not only his success, but his preferred uptempo style of play. This year FGCU became known as "Dunk City," similar to the NBA's Los Angeles Clippers nickname of "Lob City," due to its high octane system.

Enfield, 43, has been at FGCU for two seasons, in his first head coaching job, has gone 41-28. Yahoo! also reported that talks with Enfield were expected to begin this weekend.

"I'm not going to comment or speculate on anything," Enfield said. "We had a game to play last night and we were totally focused on that. I understand the speculation is part of the business."

With FGCU's NCAA tournament run ended Friday in a 62-50 loss to Florida, Enfield's value among other programs has risen tremendously.

"Every time you have success in this business, it's natural to be (discussed as a coaching candidate)," Enfield said. "My personal life and my family's personal life has been under scrutiny the last week, week-and-a-half."

According to USA Today, Enfield just ended the second of a five-year deal that initially paid him $152,500 with $5,000 annual raises. He received a $5,000 bonus for making the NCAA tournament and $10,000 for making the Sweet 16.
