BOULDER — While new Colorado head coach Mel Tucker is keeping a close eye on every position on the field in spring ball, he can't help but cast an extra glance on occasion toward his secondary.
It's no wonder. Tucker played defensive back at Wisconsin and has since spent much of his career coaching the secondary (along with coordinator duties) at both the college and pro levels.
That experience will be key to the Buffs development in the secondary this spring. Colorado lost both of its starting safeties from last year, Evan Worthington and Nick Fisher, to graduation.
