Colorado football coach Mel Tucker is staying with the Buffaloes.
Tucker’s name has been thrown around a bunch for the Michigan State opening, but he killed the speculation Saturday when he tweeted, “I am committed to @CUBuffsFootball for #TheBuild of our program, its great athletes, coaches & supporters.” (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
While I am flattered to be considered for the HC job @MSU_football, I am committed to @CUBuffsFootball for #TheBuild of our program, its great athletes, coaches & supporters. #UnfinishedBusiness #GoBuffs
We are #Relentless #Culture #TheBuild

Well, there’s another name you can cross off of the list for the Buffs. Michigan State is just taking it in the shorts right now.
Dantonio shocked everybody with a stunning retirement, they’re scrambling to find a coach and nothing is coming together.

Tucker would have been a great hire if they could have gotten him, but that’s no longer an option on the table.
I honestly have no idea what the Michigan State leaders plan to do. I have no idea at all. What I do know for sure is that they’re going to have to act fast.

With every passing day, MSU’s situation is going to only get worse. What a disaster of a scenario for the Spartans.
