A new team has emerged in the infamous #WakeyLeaks scandal. This afternoon, Virginia Tech Director of Athletics Whit Babcock announced that Virginia Tech was contacted by Wake Forest University as part of the Tommy Elrod scandal. Virginia Tech joins Louisville and Army as known teams that have been contacted by Wake Forest. Babcock’s full statement is below.
Let me begin by saying that this is how you issue a press release. He accepted responsibility and was not dismissive of the situation. At this point it’s unknown which assistant coach received the proprietary information from Elrod. There were no assistants from that staff who previously coached with Elrod.
