Virginia Tech head coach Justin Fuente has adjusted the titles of two employees on Thursday, Virginia Tech announced. Long time defensive coordinator Bud Foster has been promoted to associate head coach and linebackers coach Galen Scott to assistant head coach.

Scott officially joined the Virginia Tech staff on Monday. Foster has been on staff at Virginia Tech since 1987.

“Bud Foster and Galen Scott will both be taking on additional leadership roles on our staff,” Fuente said. “I’ve appreciated Galen’s counsel and perspective for many years. It hasn’t taken me long to gain an even deeper respect for Bud and the pulse he has on Virginia Tech and our program. I trust both of them implicitly, and I will lean on them to help ensure we’re always heading in the right direction.”
