Reading various outlets, the buzzword seems to be that he brings “credibility” and “stability”. The more I think about it the more I think it’s going to many short term but I question year 3-4-5… the guy has only known Utah and Michigan is a whole different animal. I feel like and I am hoping he sees this as his blue sky job and just mails it in.
It’s Bronco to Virginia all over again

5 years is pretty standard, or at least, used to be.

While he's a good coach, I don't see how he fits at Michigan. He's a BYU grad and LDS, and he's coached at Utah for 30 years, none of which says "fits well in Whoretown." It's like taking a guy from Boston who coached in the rust belt his whole life and dropping him in, say, the bayou, and thinking it will work out. But nobody would do something that dumb.
He's had to deal with his DB coach being married to a Real Housewife who was jailed for stealing from old people. Not same same, but I think same enough
I’m really curious as to how Michigan got this guy to unretire and agree to that job. I doubt if it’s the money he must have plenty by now.
Everything I’ve seen about him was how much he loved living in Utah and the outdoor life. His retirement at 66 made sense. Going to Michigan does not.
He was pushed out. Morgan Scalley has been the official coach in waiting for two seasons.

My Instant Reaction To Michigan Hiring Kyle Whittingham To Be Their Next Head Coach

View attachment 3061917

"We are so f---ing back!"
"One of the greatest coaches in the history of college football."
"This is the beginning of a dynasty."
"It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!"

🤮🤮🤮
This dude is such a clown. He overpaid for a 5 star quarterback who can't hit the broadside of a barn with a football.

I guarantee he has a pink Michigan State butt plug deep in his ass when he shot this video. 👍

They actually have 8 fucking home games next year. There should be an asterisk next to Michigan's all time wins!!!
That's EVERY year. Plus, at least 2 pre-B1G games are against FCS equivalent opponents (at HOME of course in the PIG house). Fuck michigan!

He’s really good at what he does. I mean he built Barstool into a sports entertainment juggernaut. Dude can farm engagement like no other. Really, though, I’ll always have a little support for him and the work he did for mom & pop restaurants during the pandemic.

Well I didn't know about him helping with Mom and pop restaurants.....that's actually admirable but he's still a douche.

I mean he said "the people in Provo know Whittingham well and love him" (or something similar to that)

The problem with that is Utah is not in Provo. That's BYU. 🤣

He had access to people he needed to grow and used it to rage bait aka farm engagement. I can't believe how trolling became cool. When he is on tv for fox he has the personality of an annoying middle school kid that either has tough friends or gets beat up

Not to mention he built his company on misogyny and racism as well. Dude sucks

Barstool is hilarious. BigCat. Brandon Walker. They spawned Pat McAfee who I think is awesome. Dave the person sucks. But Dave the businessman has proven himself.

Another problem is that Whitt wasn't coaching at Utah State, which is in Logan. He coached at Utah, which is in Salt Lake City.

66 years old. He's certainly a solid coach and had some good success at a program where 10 wins is an outstanding season. I don't know how that's going to work at Michigan. He must be a decent talent evaluator based on his record but how good of a recruiter is he in the new landscape of CFB? He's never had the pressure of recruiting for a program like Michigan before. To me it seems like a very safe hire. It does seem like he's just a placeholder until they can sign someone they really wanted.
When you average 7 home games per year with only 1 team to really worry about who wouldn't want to take the job?
Michigan hired a coach who can take them back to their tradition of losing the Rose Bowl.

66 years old, has been coaching at Utah since 1994 and this is the furthest east he has ever traveled since he played for the New Orleans Breakers in 1984.

Bridge hire. Wake me in 2033 when these jokers are back on the schedule. There is nothing to see here.
