Tyson Waterman

Tyson Waterman joined UCF’s men’s basketball staff in July 2023. In his time there, he’s helped elevate UCF’s guard play (with Keyshawn Hall and Darius Johnson earning Big 12 honors) and contributed to big non-conference wins over ranked teams in UCF’s early Big 12 seasons. Before UCF, he spent five seasons at Wichita State (becoming recruiting coordinator in 2021), worked in prep-school basketball via his Believe Academy, and had a stint as assistant at Southeastern Louisiana. He was a standout player at Winthrop (1995–2000), where he still ranks high in scoring and assists, and had his jersey (#41) retired.
