ESPN reports that assistant Greg Gary has been named interim head coach as the program begins its next steps.

The Yellow Jackets closed the season with a 79-76 loss at Clemson.

They finished 11-20 overall and 2-16 in ACC play, which left them last in the conference and out of the ACC tournament.

Both WRAL and ESPN highlight the 12-game losing streak as a key factor in the decision to relieve Stoudamire of his duties.

Across his three seasons at Georgia Tech, Stoudamire compiled a 42–55 overall record and a 19–39 mark in ACC play.

ESPN and WRAL place that tenure in the context of ongoing program struggles, noting the team has had only one NCAA Tournament appearance since 2010 under recent coaches.

ESPN reports Georgia Tech will owe Stoudamire about $2.6 million over the next two years, subject to offset if he takes another job.

WRAL records athletic director Ryan Alpert’s public thank-you, calling Stoudamire 'highly respected and admired' for his commitment to the school and student‑athletes.

Georgia Tech officials framed the move as part of a broader effort to restore competitiveness to the program.
