Looks like Whittingham will coach his last game for Utah in their upcoming bowl game against Nebraska. Seems like he’s stepping down in order to step up, in my opinion. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him coaching an SEC or B1G team this time next year (edit - I meant for 2027). Not the kind of guy to search for a job while still employed, and not the kind of guy to jump ship mid-season or before a bowl game on the culture he’s maintained at that university. As we saw this year, there will be plenty of opportunities again next year. 

Where could you see him coaching again?
