DuBose is entering his first season with Black Hills State.
DuBose spent the last three seasons with Eastern Washington and helped produce the Eagles best Big Sky conference record since 2016 going 8-8 this year in Big Sky play. DuBose worked with middle blockers during his time at EWU. In doing so, DuBose helped middle blocker Bri Gunderson earn First Team All-Big Sky this year and Second Team All-Big Sky in 2023.
Prior to Eastern Washington, DuBose was the longest tenured head coach in Utah State history. He spent 14 seasons at the helm from 2006-19. He won 2 WAC Coach of the Year Awards in 2007 and 2012. He finished as the second winningest coach in Utah State history with 187 wins, all while producing 25 all-conference players and 115 academic all-conference Players. DuBose had his first ever NCAA Tournament appearance as Head Coach in 2010, where the Aggies won their first ever WAC Championship going 24-9. He also developed two Freshman of the Years in his time in the WAC
In 2013, DuBose helped lead Utah State into the Mountain West with a 20-11 record and 13-7 Mountain West record. The Aggies finished 3rd in the conference and had a 9-2 home record, which was the best in the DuBose era and the best in Utah State since 2001. He also helped produce Utah State's first ever All-MW Team selection in Opposite Elle Brainard
The 2012 season was DuBose's last in the WAC, and produced his first ever WAC Regular Season Championship finishing 21-9 and 15-3 in conference play. They advanced all the way to the WAC Semifinals before falling. During that season DuBose was honored with his second WAC Coach of the Year and had his second WAC Freshman of the Year in Brainard.
2010 was DuBose's best season as a head coach. He finished 24-9, which was the best record for Utah State since 1979. DuBose was able to lead the Aggies through the WAC Championship where they upset Hawai'i, who had won the previous 12 WAC Championships up to that point. It landed them a spot in the NCAA Tournament for DuBose's first time as head coach.
In DuBose's second season at the helm in 2007, he had his first winning season with a 17-13 record and an 11-5 record in the conference. He was awarded his first of two WAC Coach of the Year awards. He also produced his first All-WAC First Team selection in Amber Nielson and his first WAC Freshman of the Year in Chelsea Fowles.
Before becoming the head coach at USU, DuBose was an assistant coach for the men’s team at BYU. During his time there he helped the Cougars earn a national title in 2004 and a runner-up finish in 2003.
In the years before BYU, he spent time as an assistant for New Mexico and Utah State, where he helped lead Utah State to their first ever NCAA Tournament in 2000, and their first ever NCAA Tournament win defeating Missouri that year. It was also the first time in school history where they finished the season in the NCAA Top 25 (#22).
DuBose graduated from BYU with a degree in history in 1993 and then received his teaching certificate from Utah State in 1995. He and his wife, Lenonnie, have three children, Kline, Cassandra, and Jackson.
