Take one look at new head football coach Mel Tucker’s resume and his experience at big name, successful, programs immediately sticks out. Between working under Nick Saban three separate times, to most recently coaching a Georgia defense that was a quarter away from beating an undefeated Alabama team, he’s cut his teeth coaching tough football teams.
After working under some of the best in the business, he’s trying to bring that hard nosed identity to his first head coaching gig at Colorado. In front of a packed audience for his introductory press conference, Tucker wasn’t shy in talking about how he wants his team to play.
