College career

Sibert averaged 11.4 minutes, 3.0 points and 1.4 rebounds as a sophomore on Ohio State's Final Four team in 2011–12. Sibert saw his minutes decrease as the season went on. He opted to transfer to the Dayton Flyers after the season due to lack of playing time, having remained on the bench in the NCAA tournament. OSU coach Thad Matta blamed poor shooting and subpar defense for Sibert not receiving the minutes he wanted.
As a junior, Sibert led Dayton in scoring at 12.2 points per game, shooting 42.6% from behind the arc. He scored in double-figures 24 times and led Dayton to an Elite Eight appearance in the NCAA Tournament. He scored 18 points in defeating Stanford 82–72 in the Sweet 16.

With a 25–8 record, Dayton was the last team selected to the NCAA Tournament. "It's just a blessing to have an opportunity to play in the tournament," Sibert said. "Some guys didn't hear their name called at all." He led Dayton to a Sweet 16 appearance and finished his Dayton career with 1,030 points. Despite playing only two years, his 163 three-pointers rank seventh in Dayton history.
