What they are saying
Coach Bryan’s coaching mentality and the City of Providence are a perfect match. He brings an intensity and a passion for winning that matches the expectations of Providence College. As both an assistant and a head coach, he has built great relationships with his players, recruited talent and developed talent into a great system that translates into winning basketball.

I couldn’t be happier for Bryan to earn this tremendous opportunity at Arkansas State. He has been with me every step of the way and is one of the most loyal guys I know. Bryan is not only one of the top recruiters in the country, but he is also a terrific coach who understands the game. He brings a lot of passion and energy in everything he does which has played a big part in our success at the University of Buffalo and University of Alabama. His ability to build great relationships with recruits and their families, players and people from all walks of life will resonate with the community of Jonesboro and re-energize the fan base. Considering his familiarity having worked with Jeff Purinton at Alabama, I think it’s a perfect fit and a terrific hire.

Bryan Hodgson is a home run hire for Arkansas State. He has been an integral part of rebuilding two college basketball programs. His knowledge of the game and his ability to teach, communicate, and connect with players sets him apart. He has an infectious personality, a network of contacts, and a work ethic second to none. Bryan will be a difference maker on campus and in the community. I’m excited to watch and talk about his success as he builds the Red Wolves into a perennial NCAA Tournament team.

Coach B breeds confidence in his players, and puts them in position to be successful. I can't wait to follow his success at A-State.

Bryan Hodgson is a terrific choice to lead the Arkansas State program. Bryan has taken the hard path to success, and has overcome every obstacle in his way. He is smart, well trained, and fundamentally sound in every area of the game. What really stands out to me is his strong, close connection to his players. Bryan coaches, teaches and cares about the whole person. He’s going to be great at Arkansas State.
