Tucker will serve on the Golden Lion Athletic Director’s Cabinet, overseeing compliance, eligibility, the NILions Program, student-athlete services & student-athlete development. Tucker will also serve as sport administrator for the Women’s Basketball Program and Baseball Program.
Tucker joined UAPB in July 2021 as the Associate A.D. for Compliance; since then, he has transited the institution out of a seven-year NCAA suspension and enhanced compliance/academic policies and procedures to minimize future NCAA violations.

“Before Tucker arrived at UAPB, Tucker spent seven years at Grambling State University in various roles, from Graduate Assistant for Compliance to Assistant A.D. for Academic Enhancement, said UAPB VC Robinson.” “During his tenure at Grambling St., the department saw increasing APR/GSR and career/internship opportunities for continuing and graduating students.”
