Mel Tucker has proven he’s focused on getting the best players to Michigan State, and getting the best people to make that happen has been a priority.
That became even more clear earlier this month when Tucker officially hired Thomas Wilcher as the team’s director of community and high school relations. It’s a long title, but it’s clear that Tucker believes the longtime Detroit Cass Tech coach will have an impact on the Michigan State program.
“The scope (of the job) actually goes beyond recruiting,” Tucker said last week at Big Ten media days in Indianapolis.
