Michigan State football: Mel Tucker seeks new chief of staff after Geoff Martzen resigns

Mel Tucker appears to be looking for a new chief of staff.

Geoff Martzen announced via Twitter on Tuesday he recently resigned his position with Michigan State football. The school confirmed his last day was Friday.

Martzen, whose bio lists him as 31, followed Tucker from Colorado in February 2020. He spent one season with the Buffaloes in 2019 after one season as Chip Kelly’s director of player personnel at UCLA in 2018. Martzen also served as Colorado State’s director of player personnel from 2015-17.

“Geoff is an outstanding evaluator of talent and players,” Tucker said in Martzen’s bio.
