A member of Anderson's staffs at Arkansas and Missouri, Bartlett brings nearly a decade of high major Division I experience to his role as the Red Storm's director of player development.
In his role as the director of player development at St. John's, Bartlett acts as the chief of staff for the head coach and provides day-to-day administrative support within the men's basketball program. He serves as the program's liaison for athletic administrative areas as well as with community service. Bartlett will also oversee the academic progress of basketball student-athletes and coordinate off-the-court player responsibilities. In addition, Bartlett will be involved in team travel and video operations and analysis.
Bartlett signed on to join Anderson's staff at Arkansas in the summer of 2011 and played a key role in elevating the Razorbacks to national prominence over his eight seasons in Fayetteville. He was promoted to the role of Special Assistant to the Head Coach for his final season at Arkansas. Prior to that, he served as the program's coordinator of basketball operations from 2011-13 and the team's video coordinator from 2013-18.
During Bartlett's time at Arkansas, the Razorbacks made five postseason appearances, including three trips to the NCAA Tournament. Bartlett helped guide Arkansas to the postseason five times in the last six years and turn in four efforts of 20-plus wins. The Razorbacks' high-water mark with Bartlett on staff came when the 2014-15 team, led by eventual First Round NBA Draft Pick Bobby Portis, won 27 games and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
Anderson has counted on Bartlett as a member of his staff since his first season at Missouri, where Bartlett was a four-year student manager before being retained as a graduate assistant. As a graduate assistant with the Tigers, Bartlett coordinated film exchange, organized the video editing process, assisted with scouting reports, oversaw the recruiting database and helped organize summer camps.
As the head student manager at Missouri, Bartlett helped coordinate visiting team practices, supervised summer camps, set up a training program for new managers and assisted with player workouts.
A native of Macomb, Ill., Bartlett and his wife Ashton, who were married in June 2016, welcomed their first child, Olivia, in November 2019.
