Fuente, Morris top candidates at Virginia Tech

Insiders tell GN that Memphis coach Justin Fuente definitely has caught the eye of the folks at Virginia Tech, which is searching for a coach to replace the retiring Frank Beamer. Also a legitimate candidate: SMU’s Chad Morris.
Fuente, 39, is in his fourth season at Memphis and has turned around the Tigers’ program. The Tigers won 10 games last season for just the second time in program history, and they are 8-1 going into Saturday’s game at unbeaten Houston. His Memphis offense is explosive, and that likely appeals to decision-makers at Virginia Tech who have seen the Hokies’ offense mired in mediocrity the past few seasons.
