In case you missed it, Pat Forde mentioned VT in his Forde Yard Dash this week:
Athletic Director of the Year: Whit Babcock (22), Virginia Tech. Eased legendary coach Frank Beamer into retirement without acrimony. Outflanked other schools on the job market to hire hot name Justin Fuente away from Memphis. And helped convince stud defensive coordinator Bud Foster to stay on staff. A tricky task couldn’t have gone much better.
