Former Virginia Tech running backs coach Shane Beamer, the son of legendary Hokies head coach Frank Beamer, has been implicated in the Wakeyleaks scandal, as he has been revealed as the assistant who received proprietary information from exiled Wake Forest radio announcer, Tommy Elrod, prior to the 2014 match-up between the Demon Deacons and the Hokies.
Last week, both the Louisville Cardinals and Virginia Tech Hokies were fined $25,000 for receiving the proprietary game plan information from Elrod. At the time this story broke last week involving the Hokies, there was no information given as to who the assistant was who received the information from Wake Forest.
