It wouldn't be the same deal for him as he had in 2025. You know all this. But he'd likely be coaching in the CFP this season, instead he's having a miserable year at UM. Utah was willing to give him a 1 yr extension (for 2026) as HC but with a lot of control going over to DC Scalley, Utah's HC in waiting. Whit also requested $9MM for 2026, Utah countered with $8MM. Whit, his agent felt slighted/insulted by Utah's overall offer, he left Utah, went to UM. Whit did get a "lovely parting gift" from Utah of $13.5MM.
