Frank Beamer on Justin Fuente
“I enjoyed meeting him. I was very impressed with him from the beginning. I think what you see is what he is…I’ve always thought I was a pretty good judge of people…I think Virginia Tech made a great choice.”
Holman Wiggins on moving to Virginia Tech
“For me, yeah (it was a no-brainer to move to VT with Justin Fuente). I hitched my wagon to him a long time ago. He’s been an awesome coach. I truly believe in what he’s doing and what he’s about.”
James Shibest on moving to Virginia Tech
“We’re just so thrilled…what Coach Beamer and Coach Foster and all the guys have done here, just to have the tradition already built here…we’ve got a good foundation to come to.”
Coaches looked great! Who was the girl with the panda cell phone cover in the interviews? It looked like she was basically filming into the lights / cameras…
Shibest reminds me of Coach Wiles. Bet they hit it off!
With Buzz and the new football crew…this is GREAT. Thanks, Whit! You get an A+
Wiggins could barely contain himself. He was that excited. Shibest seems like a fun guy to go drink a few beers with. I hope they both bring success with that enthusiasm.
While it’s seemed hard to imagine other guys coaching this program, these guys seem like an instant fit.
Agree completely they seem like a smooth transition will take place
What happened to Beamer’s lip in that video?
He accidentally cut himself when dancing in the locker room after the game. It was in the paper.
Both of the new guys seem great. Very well spoken, personable and excited. Even Beamer seemed like a better interviewee. Very excited about the future!
I like it. Seems like Coach is very relaxed and enjoying himself these days. Good to see.
I love their enthusiasm. It will be contagious!
I’m going to miss Beamer, but shesh, these guys seem like a perfect fit. I haven’t been this excited about VT football in ages.
Yep going to be strange next year, without CFB, but I the more I see of the new guys I like, the big thing is that CBF & CCW is staying.
