So did Foster just not want it? Dude was HCIW like 10 years ago.

I'm surprised he is staying on

Good hire, but it sounds like he's not bringing in his own staff... which seems weird to me that he would agree to that.

Fuente isn't a home run hire. He'll do well but won't bring VT to elite levels or anything

Nice hire. And wanted to say the end to the VTech game was awesome. Those coaches and players love Beamer.

Great hire. It won't take much to get VT back to elite status

Great hire. I like him more than Herman. QB play won't be an issue once he gets his guy.

ETA: Kind of surprised he took the VT job given the openings this year, but at least one of VT, UVA, UM and WVA should be good. Maybe it'll be VT.

Will be interesting to see how he recruits DC and the Hampton roads areas.

VT does not have those areas on lock like they used too.

The timing of the "leak" & provisions sure feel like a deal that's been hammered out for weeks, and with Beamer's involvement. He's earned it and so has Foster, but beware of arranged marriages.

Great hire for a solid program that can consistently win 9-10 games a year and challenge FSU and Clemson for the ACC. Plus you guys are keeping Foster, who usually fields a tough physical defense.

Hopefully his record vs top 25 opponents is better than Beamers. Love Beamer and his special teams, but damn, he could not beat top 25 teams....that is unless it was the national champs last year

Great hire and Bud Foster is going to be the glue that helps with the transition. I don't think I've ever seen a more loyal and great DC as Bud Foster.... He is not only a great DC, but he obviously loves Tech....
