How many people would have been thrilled to have hired Chip Kelly at Utah?? UCLAns used to be, but they are not now. Grass is always greener?
KWhitt didn’t commit the stupid penalties that cost Utah the game. Now we could say he needs to come down harder on people that make mistakes, yes, but we don’t know everything that happens off the field. Not every player responds well to a coach who goes berserk over such stuff — but agreed sometime KWhitt just frowns and nothing much seems to come from it. Also he seems to take the best athletes and move them to defense — maybe he needs to make the oh-fense more of a priority in recruiting and player development. Also the selection of oh-fensive depth chart seems more about who makes fewer mistakes than about who has “it” to lift up the rest of the team and perform best under pressure — those guys are rare, like Baker Mayfield — and I”m not advocating starting a raw freshman at QB, but maybe it is time to give Shelly some more reps. The Utes are not going to win many games with the oh-fense scoring so little.
