Pilipovich began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at California University of Pennsylvania in 1986 before being named an assistant coach in 1988. Then from 1989 to 1991, Pilipovich was an assistant coach at Florida Atlantic. He was promoted to associate head coach, a position he would have from 1991 to 1994. From 1994 to 1996, Pilipovich was an assistant coach at Georgia State.
He then returned to Western Pennsylvania to be assistant coach at Robert Morris from 1996 to 2000. At Robert Morris, Pilipovich helped head coach Jim Boone turn around a losing program, with two straight winning seasons in 1998–99 with a 15–12 record followed by an 18–12 record in 1999–2000. Pilipovich then followed Boone to Eastern Michigan, serving as an assistant coach from 2000 to 2005, the entirety of Boone's tenure at the school.
From 2005 to 2007, Pilipovich served on the staff of Tommy Amaker at Michigan, first as an administrative assistant in 2005–06 then as an assistant coach in 2006–07. Michigan appeared in two straight NITs that season, including the 2006 National Invitation Tournament final.
From 2007 to 2012, Pilipovich spent five years as an assistant at Air Force under Jeff Reynolds. Following the 2009-10 season, the Falcons appeared in the post-season collegeinsider.com tournament. This was the Falcons first post-season tournament since 2007.
Pilipovich became the head coach at Air Force in February 2012 after Reynolds was relieved of his duties. In his first year as head coach, he led the Falcons to a 58-56 victory over then 13th-ranked San Diego State, marking Air Force's first-ever win against a Top 20 team and just its second win over a ranked opponent. Pilipovich won two of his first three games as Air Force's head coach.
In the 2012–13 season, Pilipovich led the Falcons to an 18–14 (8–8 MWC) record, tying the fourth most single season wins in program history. Air Force appeared in the 2013 CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament and achieved the first post-season road win in school history with a 69-65 victory at Hawai'i. Pilipovich also became the first Air Force head coach to beat two ranked teams in the same season and owns three of Air Force's four wins against ranked opponents, including an 89-88 win over the twelfth ranked New Mexico.
However, the 2012–13 season would be the only winning season that Pilipovich had in eight full seasons as head coach. In 2018–19, Air Force finished 14–18 (8–10 MW), tying the 2012–13 team for the most single season conference wins. However, the 2019–20 team had a 12–20 (5–13 MW) record. On March 9, 2020, Pilipovich was fired. Pilipovich left Air Force with a cumulative 110–151 (50–99 MW) record.
