This is straight from Fosters personal website.
Hello Hokies!!
I'd like to take this opportunity to give you all my reaction to all the recent 'rumors' going on since last week. You all deserve to hear it from me. First, as you all know, my goal is to be head coach. Obviously, Virginia Tech is where I'd like to be, however, my agent and I look at each opportunity as it arises and weigh those opportunities against my personal and professional goals.
South Carolina
There were many rumors late last week and through this weekend about the defensive coordinator position at South Carolina. I offered my opinion this past Saturday on the subject during media day - I am staying put with the Hokies. Coach Beamer and I discussed this in detail and I'll say again, it is within my best interest to stay with Virginia Tech.
West Virginia
Yes, there are many rumors about the head coach position now vacated by Coach Rodriguez. And yes, my name is on the list as we have submitted it. Please be aware that this is done a LOT amongst coaches throughout the league - to test the waters, to test the reaction of other programs as well as our own and help myself gain experience and knowledge of the coaching recruiting process. Now, my name being submitted to the 'pool of applicants' does not mean very much right now. It's an inquiry.
Remember, this is the time of year for these types of rumors - Programs and fans alike all call for changes to the 'top guy' when things don't go well or simply something needs to change. Hey, remember what I've said all along and still believe today - I work for the best Head Coach in the nation in Coach Beamer.
Now - You should also know that my focus right now is Virginia Tech football. I am totally committed to Virginia Tech football and ensuring our defense is ready to play an excellent football game against a great Kansas team down in the Orange Bowl in January. I hope you all can make it to Miami - it's going to be a great game!
