The Kyle Whittingham Thread

[concerned]

<Raises hand>

There are worse situations to be in than to have Morgan Scalley waiting in the wings. That I don't like CIW agreements and giving alumni their first big break doesn't mean I'm opposed to Morgan. I'd rather try something new as we're fortunate enough to flex some P5 muscle in hiring coaches, let Morgan get some HC experience elsewhere, and then hire him back to Utah if an experiment away from the current coaching tree doesn't work.

Phil Bengsten comes to mind.

Hire an assistant - plenty of examples of that working out well, plenty of it not working out.

Hire a rising G5 star, same thing.

Hire a famous alum, same thing.

Hire a former NFL coach, same thing.

If there was a proven formula that everyone could do, everyone would do it.

Wow! There's a name from the long past! I'll see you Bengston and raise you Ed Orgeron, Chris Petersen and Mario Cristobal. And Kyle Whittingham.

You forgot David Shaw. Cristobal and Orgeron are not in the same category, because they both had prior head coach experience; Orgeron signficant trial and error experience.
