Utah State head women’s basketball coach Kayla Ard announced the hiring of Andre Gibbs as an assistant coach on Tuesday.
“I’m very excited to have Andre & his wife Jessica joining the Aggie family,” Ard said. “I love his energy and enthusiasm about basketball. He is the type of guy that will do whatever it takes to achieve the program’s highest success on and off the court, while being a great role model for our student-athletes as they grow. Cache Valley is going to enjoy having him as part of our community.”
Gibbs joins the Aggies after spending two seasons as an assistant coach at Queens University, where he helped coach Kalaya Hall to all-SAC honors in 2021-22 and Amari Davis to all-freshman SAC honors in 2020-21.
He previously spent a season as a volunteer on the Bryn Mawr College staff, where he assisted with the day-to-day operations of the program, player development and scouting of opponents.
Gibbs played and learned under Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame coach Herb McGee at Philadelphia University. He finished his collegiate career with 1,300 points and 350 assists, helping guide the Rams to 91 wins across four seasons.
“I’m incredibly excited and grateful to be joining the Utah State family,” Gibbs said. “I want to thank coach Ard for giving me an opportunity to work for such a wonderful program. Coach Ard’s character and knowledge of the game are some of the many reasons that make this program great to be a part of. It’s a privilege to be an Aggie. I can’t wait to be in Logan and get to work.”
