The CU Buffs have a new head coach in Mel Tucker.
Tucker comes to Colorado from SEC country and replaces Mike MacIntyre. He is a well-respected football coach with stops at the collegiate and NFL levels. Tucker most recently spent the past three seasons at Georgia as the Bulldogs’ defensive coordinator.
