Beamer's Contract Extension

Maybe you've heard how Frank Beamer received a new contract extension earlier this week, projecting him through possibly the 2016 season.  While he may or may not coach that long, the first thought that jumped into my head was, "Bud Foster will be leaving soon."  Think about it; Bud has been waiting patiently to take Beamer's spot as head coach for a while, and if Beamer keeps getting extensions and raises, Foster may begin to seriously think about a head coaching job at another school.  He is already in his 50's and his name comes up every year for head coaching jobs at various well-known schools, but he can't wait forever for Beamer to retire.  If the worst case happens and we lose Foster to a school like Memphis, Pitt, UNC, or any other schools mentioned recently, there is always the chance he could go and be a head coach for a few years to gain experience then come back to VT.  Or the athletics department at VT could make it known that Bud Foster is definitely the next head coach at VT, similar to Jimbo Fisher while he was waiting for Bobby Bowden to retire on his own terms.  I hope Bud Foster does what is best for him and his family, wherever that may be, but some clarification on what will happen during the post-Beamer era would be appreciated as well so all those talks about Bud Foster leaving could be laid to rest.
