Georgia Tech Basketball: MaChelle Joseph fired as women’s head basketball coach

The latest turn in the MaChelle Joseph saga for Georgia Tech has been taken and it’s one that will change the future of the women’s basketball program. After being placed on leave last month, MaChelle Joseph has been fired as the head women’s basketball coach. The AJC first reported the firing.

The firing comes after allegations of Joseph creating what could only be described as a “toxic culture” inside the program. That being said, Joseph remains adamant about her innocence and continues to say that the issue at hand is not one of a toxic culture but that of a gender problem inside the Georgia Tech athletic department.
