Source: Virginia Tech to hire Memphis Justin Fuente

[BrAinPaiNt]

Justin Fuente will become the next football coach at Virginia Tech, a source confirmed to ESPN's Brett McMurphy on Saturday.

Fuente, who has revived the program at Memphis, will replace revered Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer, who announced earlier this month that he will retire at the end of this season.

Longtime Hokies defensive coordinator Bud Foster and associate head coach Shane Beamer will remain on Virginia Tech's staff under Fuente, the source told McMurphy.

Sorry @Yeagermeister

I've heard his name tossed around for several jobs.

I'm pretty excited about the hire. Especially now that it's official Bud Foster is sticking around. Hokie fans have long dreamed of pairing his defenses with a real offense.

I think it sucks.... Cause as a Mountaineer fan... We loathe the VPI Hokies

Totally sucks for Yeager. Finally get a decent program and the guy jumps ship. You can only hope that the next guy continues the upward trend.
