In October 2014, Gibbons was removed as head basketball coach after a former player, Ashley Cooper, filed a lawsuit against him alleging physical and verbal abuse. He was reinstated to the team in January 2015 after Holy Cross investigated and concluded that "The College believes the lawsuit's allegations have no legal merit" and were false.[1]
On March 28, 2019, Gibbon’s contract was not renewed after a second suspension as head coach.
He was born and raised in Worcester and graduated from Clark University with his B.A. and M.A.[2]
