East Lansing — Mel Tucker rounded out his coaching staff on Wednesday, naming Diron Reynolds as the Spartans’ defensive line coach.
Reynolds, who has coached more than 25 years at both the NFL and Power Five level, replaces Marco Coleman, who left Michigan State after one season to take the defensive line coaching job at his alma mater, Georgia Tech.
“I’ve known Diron Reynolds for more than 15 years — he’s one of the best coaches in the business,” Tucker said in a statement. “He has an impressive pedigree having worked for some of the top coaches in all of football, including Tony Dungy, Leslie Frazier, David Shaw and Jim Caldwell, and has coached in both the Super Bowl and College Football Playoff.
