In one of the worst kept coaching secrets ever, former Hokies offensive line coach Curt Newsome has rejoined the staff at JMU. 

That move became official over the weekend.  Prior to his seven years at Virginia Tech, Coach Newsome was a member of the staff at JMU when the Dukes won the national championship in 2004. 

His first day in Harrisonburg was last Friday.  He was replaced by Jeff Grimes in Blacksburg.
