CBS Sports: MSU head coach Mel Tucker’s seat is heating up, ‘pressure mounting’

CBS Sports may be a little premature with this take on Mel Tucker…

Michigan State football head coach Mel Tucker’s seat is apparently starting to warm up, according to Dennis Dodd of CBS Sports.

Dodd released the “2023 College Football Hot Seat Rankings” this week and Tucker is one of the coaches that could be starting feel some pressure entering this upcoming season. Of the six ratings (ranging from zero to five) in Dodd’s article, Tucker was slotted as a three — which is the bucket labeled as “pressure is mounting.”

Tucker is entering his fourth season as the Spartans head coach, with a record of 18-14 overall. Tucker, however, is in the midst of a massive deal that makes it wild to think that Michigan State would be even remotely considering to move on from him. So this rating from Dodd seems terribly premature unless he expects Michigan State to have a terrible season in 2023 — which I personally don’t think will happen.
