KENT, Ohio – With veteran leadership and hungry newcomers, the Golden Flashes' secondary enters camp as one of the most competitive position groups on the roster.
Tucker Steps Into Leadership Role
Redshirt Sophomore Tevin Tucker has embraced his role as the veteran leader of Kent State's secondary after the departure of several experienced players from last season. According to safety coach Cherokee Valeria, Tucker is "stepping up into a leadership role" and providing crucial communication at a high level.
"That leadership role provides him an opportunity to communicate at a high level, and that is important in our defense, and he understands that," Valeria said.
