Report: Georgia DC Mel Tucker lands head coaching job at Power 5 program
The Georgia Bulldogs have been a great team the past couple of years, and that means other teams are looking to capture some of that magic.
Georgia DC Mel Tucker has been getting a lot of looks from other teams in recent years, and now it appears he’s been hired away from the Bulldogs.
Per a report on Saturday morning, Tucker has landed the open head coaching job at Colorado, a Pac-12 school:

Tucker was in the mix at Tennessee last year too before that job went to then-Alabama DC Jeremy Pruitt, so it’s no surprise he landed a top spot this year.
Will he stay through whatever bowl or College Football Playoff games the Bulldogs play? That remains to be seen.
