Dom Hoffman returned to his alma mater in April 2019 after finishing up a graduate assistantship at Virginia Commonwealth University. Hoffman, who captained the 2015-16 Bison team, received his degree in English in 2016. As Bucknell's manager of basketball operations, Hoffman is tasked with coordinating all types of team logistics, including key elements such as team travel, recruiting, camps and video editing.

While at VCU, Hoffman worked under head coach Mike Rhoades in one of the premier programs in the Atlantic 10. In 2018-19, the Rams went 25-8 overall and 16-2 in the A10, and they earned an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. Hoffman developed workout plans for the VCU frontcourt players, including three All-A10 selections. He also assisted the director of basketball operations in numerous areas, including video breakdown, academic monitoring, scouting, and coordination of travel and gear.

Prior to his stint as the graduate assistant at VCU, Hoffman spent the 2016-17 season as director of player development at Rider University.

During his playing days at Bucknell, Hoffman appeared in 117 career games and was a key cog in the frontcourt rotation all four years. As a freshman, he was part of a Patriot League championship and NCAA Tournament team, when he served as a valuable backup to veterans Joe Willman and current NBA player Mike Muscala. Hoffman was then a part of Bison squads that captured regular-season league titles in 2014-15 and 2015-16. He averaged a career-high 6.2 points per game while shooting just under 50 percent from the field and better than 85 percent from the foul line as a senior. That year he also earned the team's Coaches' Award for his outstanding contributions to the program.
