Georgia Tech has fired head basketball coach Damon Stoudamire after three seasons, sources confirmed to Channel 2 Action News.
ESPN first reported the decision on Sunday morning.
Stoudamire and the Yellow Jackets ended the 2025-2026 season on a 12-game losing streak. Stoudamire finishes his three seasons at Tech with an overall 42-55 record.

Georgia Tech hired Stoudamire, who played in the NBA for 13 seasons, back in 2023. Before his time on the Flats, he was an assistant coach for the Boston Celtics and head coach for the University of the Pacific from 2016-2021.
Officials hoped that Stoudamire would be the coach to get Georgia Tech basketball back to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2010. But the team’s only postseason appearance was in the 2025 NIT. The Yellow Jackets lost in the first round.
The search now begins for Georgia Tech basketball’s 16th head coach in program history.
