Kyle Whittingham is the new head coach of the Michigan Wolverines. Hours after it was reported that Whittingham had accepted the job, U-M made the official announcement on Friday evening.
“Kyle Whittingham is a well-respected and highly successful head coach who is widely recognized as a leader of exceptional character and principled leadership,” Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel said in a released statement. “Throughout our search, he consistently demonstrated the qualities we value at Michigan: vision, resilience, and the ability to build and sustain championship-caliber teams. Kyle brings not only a proven track record of success, but also a commitment to creating a program rooted in toughness, physicality, discipline and respect — where student-athletes and coaches represent the university with distinction both on and off the field. We are excited to welcome Kyle to the University of Michigan family as he takes the helm of our football program.”
Whittingham led the Utah program for the last 21 seasons, succeeding Urban Meyer after he left for Florida. With the Utes, Whittingham posted a 177-88 record, leading Utah to 18 winning seasons and double-digit victories 8 times. Whittingham led Utah to an undefeated season in 2008 and won national Coach of the Year awards 3 times.
“We are honored to lead the outstanding student-athletes, coaches, and staff who represent Michigan Football each day,” Whittingham said in a program release. “Michigan is synonymous with tradition and excellence — both on the field and beyond — and our entire program is committed to upholding those values while striving for greatness together. My family and I are thrilled to join the University of Michigan community, and we look forward to helping our players grow, develop, and reach their highest potential — on the gridiron, in the classroom, and as leaders. It’s a privilege to be part of something that inspires pride in every Wolverine fan. Go Blue!”
Whittingham, 66, signed a 5-year deal with Michigan. He follows Sherrone Moore, who was recently fired for cause.
