In an effort to create a more Singapore type atmosphere, Virginia Tech’s Frank Beamer is implementing the no potty-mouth rule while on the job. This means coaches and staff cannot say any vulgar or profane words in front of other coaches, staff, and especially players during meetings, practices, workouts, etc. It’s not enough for his staff to say, “yes sir, I accept your dumba$$ rule,” rather he is going to levy fines.
