Frank Beamer Reportedly Retiring After Season

[GoBigOrangeVols]

@FootballScoop: Sounds like Virginia Tech will make this official in about 30 minutes. Frank Beamer to retire. Pour one out fellas https://t.co/g4K8uzRxeI

This has to be Bud Foster's job if he wants it right? Does VT dare go outside for a hire?

 

[BruinVol]

Bet he doesn't walk out on his team like a coward


Props to a great career.
Classy guy

I work for va tech. This is apparently true. I will have a list of possible names floating around soon.

 

[CarbonVol]

At the end of season per ESPN

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

Have to think it's a highly desirable job. Easier side of the ACC, great recruiting base in the tidewater area. Great facilities and fan base. I would rank it 2nd among available jobs behind Southern Cal.

They may go in-house with Shane Beamer or Bud Foster. May go national.

Frank Beamer to retire as Virginia Tech Hokies coach at end of season

[CA_Vol]

He's skeered...

 

[ReaderVol]

So long Coach. I've enjoyed watching your teams for all the years. Classy guy

Many here are saying national. A name that keeps popping up is Rich Rod. He has coached in the region (West Virginia) and is a personal friend of the AD.

I'd retire before I had to face Butch and the boys too.

 

[eskimovol]

Hope bud foster doesn't end up in the sec.

 

[VFLBerg]

???

Spurrier.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

There is no way rich rod goes anywhere. Try again.

 

[RoaminVol]

We better not lose to Virginia Tech next year then!!!!

 

[rtb1983]

There is no way rich rod goes anywhere. Try again.

I am not calling that move. Just repeating what the minions here are saying.

 

[Air_Force_Vol27]

They're poor new coach whoever it may be will get slaughtered on Sept 10.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

Maybe you can get al golden. 😜

 

[TennesseeRhett]

This will hurt VT in the short term. New coach, possibly new system going into Bristol early on against a Tennessee team that should be in championship form... That game may be timed perfectly for us. Huge exposure in the biggest game in history, should get a lot more people talking.

 

[DocVOLiday]

makes the battle at bristol more interesting. but hopefully whoever they hire gets slaughtered against us

 

[joevol33]

Wish him the best. Classy guy.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

For real tho I bet bud foster gets the nod.

 

[VolFootballnut]

Virginia Tech is about to enter the ACC basement with Virginia

 

[NEO]

I think he looked at our game next year and realized he no longer had the players to put up much of a dogfight.
