Thanks Tony that’s good news. It will be interesting to see if Whitt steps down how many guys hit the portal or stay with Scalley. With Ludwig gone it’s time for a new era. Next year will be a rebuilding year so let Scalley mold a team with his vision.

Scalley has always been a great recruiter and is far from a Whitt 2.0 when it comes to philosophies. If Whitt hangs it up, there’s plenty of reason to be optimistic about the future.

NO THEY WON’T BECAUSE HE’S GOING TO TEACH THEM THE VALUE OF HARD WORK

that is a fun fact

Fun fact: contracts can always be renegotiated or have language added if all parties agree.

his contract states that he gets 1.0 for retiring and just under that per annum for 5 years of consulting. He doesn’t get to roll his salary over into his retirement package so the 6.5 MM per is what he would be leaving on the table for any unfulfilled years.

Not trying to be a downer since everyone of us will age and die, but Whitt will probably never teach his great grandkids much of anything. Most people never meet their great grandparents, let alone learn hard work from them. That’s what parents, teachers, coaches, grandparents, and older siblings are for.

Rather hard to believe that Singer has zero touchdowns so far this season.

BUT HIS GREAT GRANDKIDS WILL NEED THE 20 MILL!

His contract already gives him 1.5M upon retirement and 995k/yr for 5 years as an asst to the AD. Either way, he’s fine.

I don’t think that’s how it going to work. He’ll retire and some of the money will be rolled into a retirement package. Again, I don’t know but it all makes sense why he’d retire and still get a chunk of that money.

that’s some serious Whitt mythology you’ve got going there. He’s going to pass up 20 mil because it will be more important his grand-kids mow lawns to learn the power of hard work.

High ticket prices late game starts and a bad product on the field. All leave a sour taste in my mouth. I would never boo but I have been disappointed in the whole game experience this year and last year. My 14 year old grandson and his friend who both play and love football fell asleep during the Arizona game. That sums it up for me.

Well have to disagree. When byu trots onto the field on Nov 9, I’ll boo until my vocal cords fall out.

well said Jim. The future can’t start if Utah is going to be stuck in the past.

Or knowing Whitt he’ll make sure his great grandkids know the meaning of hard work and earning your own money.

for him personally, I’m sure you’re right that he has whatever he needs already. But this is generational money. An extra 20 mil can make sure that his great-grandkids are never wanting

If you’re a recruit and the head coach you want to play for is retiring possibly before you even get there. Head coach in waiting has no HC experience. Lots of seniors leaving and not much talent to build on. This year is the beginning of the end for a few years. Good time to step down and let Scalley start the rebuilding process. I expect lots o…[Read more]

Agree on the OC point. Doesn’t make sense for KW to hire the OC if Morgan is taking over in the next 1-2 years. Naming a coach in waiting secures continuity with Morgan and signals KW has his eye on the door. I’m sure there’s perk overlap with the consultant gig in his contract. Good hell, KW makes enough $ for 10 people to comfortably retir…[Read more]
