If there’s one thing Michigan State football fans can’t really complain about concerning Mel Tucker, it’s his hiring of assistants and other personnel.
On Monday, he made a huge hire after losing Scott Aligo to Kansas, striking a deal with Wisconsin’s Saeed Khalif as the new director of player personnel. No casual college football fans know other programs’ players of personnel, but this is a great hire for Tucker as Khalif was responsible for a lot of the recruiting success Wisconsin has had.
