Playing career

Born in Fairfax, California, Pribble graduated from Sir Francis Drake High School in 2003 and played college basketball at California under Ben Braun, initially as a walk-on before earning a scholarship.[2] He was part of the Golden Bears' 2006 NCAA Tournament squad,[3] and graduated in 2007 with a bachelor's degree in sociology.

Coaching career

Following graduation, Pribble served as a graduate assistant at Cal before becoming the head boys' basketball coach at Tamalpais High School in Mill Valley, California from 2008 to 2011, where he guided the school to its first playoff berth in eight years during the 2009–10 season.[4] Pribble returned to the college ranks at San Francisco State in NCAA Division II, then to Eastern Washington in Division I. During the 2014–15 season, he was part of the Eagles' Big Sky Conference regular season co-champions and conference tournament championship, which earned them a berth in the NCAA tournament.

His first college head coaching job came in 2015 at Saint Martin's University in Lacey, Washington. In four seasons at the helm, Pribble guided the Saints to an 83–40 (.675) record, and the program's first two appearances in the NCAA Division II tournament, including a Sweet 16 appearance in 2019.[4][1]

Following the 2019 season, Pribble joined the staff at Seattle University, serving under head coaches Jim Hayford and Chris Victor.[5] On March 16, 2023, the University of Idaho named Pribble as head coach, the 31st in program history, replacing Zac Claus.[6][7]
