Not long after Michigan State’s Director of Player Personnel Scott Aligo left for his alma mater Kansas, Mel Tucker has tabbed a replacement. Saeed Khalif appears to be the next man in line to take the role and replace Aligo.
Khalif currently holds the Director of Player Personnel role at Wisconsin, a spot in which he has been a huge contributor to their recent recruiting success.
Khalif was a standout defensive lineman at Georgia Tech in the 80s. Since his playing days, he has spent time in a support role with Georgia Tech as well as the defensive coordinator of Savannah State before taking over at Wisconsin.
The Spartans recruiting efforts should get a huge bolster with the addition of Khalif. A strong hire by Mel Tucker to replace Aligo.
