Antonio Bostic is in his sixth year as an assistant coach on the ACU staff, joining the Wildcats after spending time as an assistant coach at Neosho County (Kan.) Community College. Bostic played one season at Neosho in 2009-10 after graduating from Shawnee Mission West High School.

In his five seasons with the Wildcats, the team has a 100-55 record including three-consecutive 20 win regular season performances in 2018-19, 2019-20, and 2020-21. Bostic was part of a coaching staff that led ACU to their first Division I postseason berth in the CIT in 2018 and followed that with their first NCAA tournament berth in 2019. After the postseason was cancelled in 2020, Bostic was a part of the staff that helped lead ACU back to the NCAA tournament and earn their first postseason victory over No. 3 Texas, 53-52.  

At Neosho, Bostic was an assistant coach on a team that finished 30-6 overall (15-4 and runner-up in the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference). Neosho won the National Junior Collegiate Athletics Association Region VI championship before falling in the second round of the NJCAA National Tournament in Hutchison, Kan.
 
Bostic started his playing career at Neosho County, playing one season under Coombs (2009-10) before continuing his career at Stephen F. Austin where he played under former head cach Danny Kaspar (now the head coach at Texas State) and current ACU associate head coach, Brette Tanner, who was an assistant coach at SFA. During his three seasons as a Lumberjack, Bostic earned first team all-Southland Conference honors as a junior in 2011-12 and second team all-conference honors as a senior in 2012-13.
 
He averaged 9.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.2 steals per game for a Lumberjack team that was 65-28 in his three seasons. As a senior he led SFA to a 27-5 record, regular-season league title and a spot in the NIT. He finished his career with 64 consecutive starts and ranked eighth in program history in steals (184).
