Ambrose was hired as a defensive technical intern for the Colorado football team's 2008 season.[2] In May 2009, head coach Dan Hawkins announced that Ambrose would take over as the wide receivers coach in 2010, but after the departure of Greg Brown, Ambrose took over the defensive backs. From 2011 to 2012, he was the secondary coach at University of California, Berkeley.[3] In 2013, he spent the season with the New Orleans Saints in the NFL as a minority intern.[3] In 2014, he coached cornerbacks at the University of Idaho and moved on to Texas State University in 2015 before being hired by Boise State University in January 2016.[3]
