Whittingham to Michigan is official. Anyone who has Michigan message board account feel free to share their meltdown 😀 The sweet tears of apoplectic Michigan douchers can heal the world…

I’m sure some fans will bitch, but I don’t see why they should considering the circumstances.

True, but there’s already been reports of discontent before it was official. So… I’m here for the tears, the validity of those tears is of no consequence to me.

The reaction of a hiring is always overrated anyways. Time will tell. Most people thought Frost and Rhule would get it done and we still aren’t very good.

Do you know why they want to push him out? He had the one bad season in 2024, but outside of that he's been solid.

I do not.

I've seen some speculation that he wasn't happy about the private equity deal, so if that caused some friction with the admin I could see both sides agreeing to part ways

Yes that private equity deal played a huge part in him being forced out. The DC Scalley was the head coach in waiting for years but it was agreed that Whittingham would retire on his own terms. That changed once Whittingham rightfully called out the PE deal and he was gone 3 days after the deal was finalized.

From what I’ve heard they think they need someone else to get them over the top, like everyone else, the playoffs. Might be delusional, might be true, IDK… but a lot of them (Ute fans) think they’ve hit the ceiling with Whittingham.

After 20 yrs…sounds familiar
