Tucker Promotes Chiaverini To Assistant Head Coach

Just the 13th To Hold The Title In CU History

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (July 24) — University of Colorado head football coach Mel Tucker announced today at the annual Pac-12 Media Day that he has named Darrin Chiaverini as assistant head coach.

Chiaverini, 41, is in his fourth year on the CU staff, as he returned to his alma mater as co-offensive coordinator and receivers coach in 2016 under then-head coach Mike MacIntyre. When MacIntyre was relieved of his duties last November and Tucker hired on December 5, Chiaverini was one of three assistant coaches that Tucker retained on his first Colorado staff, keeping him on as receivers coach.
