Report: Potential LSU Coach Candidate Mel Tucker To Receive New Deal At Michigan State

Football Scoop is reporting that Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker has been offered a contract extension and a "significant raise" to remain the head coach of the Spartans.

Tucker has been mentioned as a candidate for the LSU job several times since the school announced on October 17 that they were parting ways with Ed Orgeron after the season.

Sources with direct knowledge tell FootballScoop that Tucker has an offer effectively in hand from MSU leaders to both extend the length and raise the salary in Tucker's current pact. Tucker, per sources, is considered a prominent candidate at LSU, the 2019 CFP champion that is seeking a new coach after announcing plans to part ways with Ed Orgeron.

Terms of the proposed extension were not disclosed, but two sources told FootballScoop it was expected to provide “a significant raise.”

If Tucker is out of the mix at LSU, then who would you like to see hired as the Tigers next head coach?
