Head Coach
He isn't that much older than Cignetti, the difference is perception. Scum fans will treat this as a bridge hire, and also rewrite Whittingham's well tenured history. He has been a good but not great coach. Cignetti may coach another 7 years. People aren't saying that about Whittingham. He is good, not great
He is also good enough to pull off a win against OSU, and also lose to a mid level B1G program. That is what he was at Utah. Every year.
If people think there will be some sort of professional level up and he will rewrite what he was, they are going to be disappointed.
Agree. Whittingham isn’t crazy old, but him stepping down after 30+ years at Utah tells me he’s not looking to coach more than 5 years, if that.
They’ll be a tough out, about they were this season. It’ll be interesting to see how many players transfer. I’m guessing more stick around now.
