Utah Utes head football coach Kyle Whittingham is stepping down following the Las Vegas Bowl, retiring after 22 season leading the program.
"The time is right to step down from my position as the head football coach at the University of Utah," Whittingham said in a statement. "It's been an honor and a privilege to lead the program for the past 21 years and I'm very grateful for the relationships forged with all the players and assistant coaches that have worked so hard and proudly worn the drum and feather during our time here," he added in part.
