LOOK: UK 5-star commit Kiyaunta Goodwin posts photo with Mel Tucker
Charlestown (Ind.) High five-star offensive tackle and Kentucky commit Kiyaunta Goodwin is making the rounds across the Midwest over the next few weeks.
But it will be tough to top the first of his visits to Big Ten country after Michigan State pulled off the 37-33 victory over Michigan for the Paul Bunyan Trophy.
After the game, Goodwin posted a photo with Spartans head coach Mel Tucker with the caption “Tuck Comin.”
“Tuck Comin” has become a rallying motto for Michigan State and Spartans fans throughout the season as the team has shocked the nation with an 8-0 start to the season.
Tucker said the victory was a big win for the state of Michigan and Spartans fans across the world.
“I tell you what — it was unbelievable. We’ve got great fans, they were a factor in the game. I told you that our guys were not going to quit. They just kept playing, body blows, body blows, body blows … and we got it done,” Tucker said after the game.. “Credit to our players, our coaches, we had great fans. It was unbelievable, and that was a great win for us.”
