      “I will evaluate, obviously, after the season is over, but my decision will be made based on what’s best for the program, not what’s best for me.” Whittingham said when asked about potentially completing his 21st season with Utah next year. “It will be completely determined on how I feel this program is best served going forward. What is best for the program will dictate my decision. Just continue to emphasize ‘put the program first,’ and whatever puts the program in the best situation moving forward, that’s the decision I’ll make. It’s just an evaluation process for me and my family to decide what’s best.”

      My hunch here is Whitt will hang it up. Just my feeling after hearing him today.

      I’ve said a lot about Whitt lately, most predominantly that he needs to go, and at one point I shared that I’ve heard he’s also an a-hole to work with sometimes. But a lot of different things can simultaneously be true. While I think he should retire, I also think he has also probably done more for Utah football than anyone else (although Urban Meyer is right up there with him, as I’m not sure that Whitts run happens without Urban). While he may be a difficult person to work with, he can also still be a really good human being.

      If Whitt were to willingly walk away at the end of this season for the good of the program, that would make me respect him even more. Not a lot of people walk away from bags of cash.
