Following Penn State's spring game last month, assistant special teams coordinator Keith Bruno said goodbye to the program, leaving college football for other opportunities. Now, the Nittany Lions have added a new assistant to their staff, according to Blue White Illustrated.
Penn State will be adding former Troy assistant Allen Tucker to their staff. Tucker spent last season with Troy as a special teams analyst. At Troy, he worked closely with former Trojan wide receiver and current Nittany Lion Devonte Ross as a punt and kick returner. Ross last year with Troy averaged 16.5 yards per kick return and 17.0 yards per punt return, including returning one punt for a touchdown.
On top of his time spent at Troy, Tucker also spent time at Akron, Mississippi State, The Citadel, and Valdosta State. During his coaching career, Tucker has produced multiple all-conference honorees while also working closely with future NFL talents Kenny Moore and Logan Cooke.
