Tyson Gilbert is an assistant coach/quality control analyst for the Colorado men’s basketball team, joining the Buffaloes' staff on May 13, 2026.
Gilbert earned the job after two seasons as a graduate assistant for the Buffaloes (2024-26). He quickly ascended into a leadership role with Colorado, assisting in all facets of the program, including compiling information for scouting reports, working with the players in practice drills and helping to manage a crew of student managers.
“This whole business is about relationships,” Gilbert said. “I just try to learn from everybody I encounter, try to learn from everything. Coach Boyle has a quote, ‘When you’re done learning, you’re through.’ So, the last couple of years, I’ve tried to dive into player development, learning what it takes to be successful at this level of coaching, working hard, and grinding. The whole staff is full of guys who sacrifice a lot and work extremely hard.”
A native of Highlands Ranch, Colo., Gilbert was a successful collegiate player. He averaged 11.2 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists over a four-year career split between NCAA Division II CSU Pueblo and Alaska Anchorage. As a senior at Alaska Anchorage in 2023-24, Gilbert was a First Team All-Great Northwest Athletic Conference selection, guiding the Seawolves to a 22-11 record and an NCAA Tournament bid.
Gilbert graduated from Alaska Anchorage in 2023 with his degree in Journalism & Public Communications. He was a two-time GNAC All-Academic Team member and a CSC Academic All-District selection as a senior. Gilbert was the 2023-24 UAA Athlete of the Year and received the Alaska Sports Hall of Fame’s 2024 Trajan Langdon Award for leadership, integrity and sportsmanship.
Gilbert appeared in 56 games for CSU Pueblo from 2018-20, averaging 9.3 points and 2.0 assists per game. He transferred to Alaska Anchorage following the 2019-20 season, but it took him two years to see the floor due to a combination of health and injury issues.
A 2018 graduate of Rock Canyon High School, Gilbert was a four-year starter and a three-time All-Continental League pick for the Jaguars. He was an All-South Metro pick as a senior, averaging 15.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.5 steals per game.
