The Southwestern Athletic Conference has publicly reprimanded and levied a fine of $5,000 to Grambling State head football coach Mickey Joseph for his comments related to officiating.
The comments were made during a weekly head coaches media session on Monday following Grambling State University’s football contest with Texas Southern University on Saturday, October 26.
Joseph’s comments were made in violation of Section II, Article 12, Item I (Causes for Imposition of a Penalty) of the SWAC Constitution, Bylaws, and Sports Regulations.
Future violations of the Conference’s Code of Ethics will result in additional penalties for Joseph including an increased fine amount along with a one-game suspension.
