Now that was a very good program. And obviously, he got the job after Urban Meyer had kind of elevated them to the point where they were on the national stage, but he\u2019s the one Kyle that took them from the Group of Five into the Pac-12, and then made the transition into the Big XII. Like he did a lot of things at Utah and made them a perennial top 15, 10 team in the country. And he did. So I would argue without the best talent in the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">&#8211; \u201cHis teams play exceptionally hard. They\u2019re physical, they\u2019re sound, and they\u2019re well coached. OK. So Kyle Whittingham is going to be there. It\u2019s still kind of weird for me to think like Kyle Whittingham at Michigan. He\u2019s so Utah to me, but now obviously he\u2019s a Michigan man, and I can\u2019t wait to see what he does in Ann Arbor for Michigan.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"-\u201cKyle is a hell of a football coach, and you have to understand where he brought Utah from&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":775522,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[7,580,52888,49,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-775521","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ncaa-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-michigan-football","10":"tag-michigan-football-news","11":"tag-ncaa","12":"tag-ncaa-football"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116131615556977295","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/775521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=775521"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/775521\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/775522"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=775521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=775521"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=775521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
