Forever grateful to have been mentored and taught by this man! His career at Utah has been unmatched, and I have been blessed to be along for the ride; learning from and growing under one of the best minds this game has ever known! The sideline will never be the same without you! Love you, Coach!
Coach @UtahCoachWhitt did not just help us win games. He helped shape who we became.
We all had talent, ambition, and dreams, but we were still learning who we were and what we stood for outside the game of football. @Utah_Football called us to something bigger. Not just wins or Saturdays, but standards. Expectations. Accountability.
We all heard the sayings throughout the years.
“The hay is never in the barn.”
“All in or in the way.”
Those were not motivational phrases. They were a way of life.
There were tests every day. Early mornings. Hard coaching. Being held to a standard whether you felt ready or not. But there was also support. Teammates who became brothers. A staff that believed in you even when you doubted yourself. And when we said the chant “Family on 3,” it meant you were never walking alone.
Football was the classroom, but life was the curriculum. When the game ended, I realized what I was really given. A mindset. A standard. A responsibility to carry those lessons forward into my career, my relationships, and my purpose.
Forever grateful.
Happy retirement, Coach.
Family on 3.
With all of the crazy head coach searches and debacles in college football right now, Utah is incredibly lucky to have a guy like Morgan Scalley ready to take the reins.
Scalley is local, grew up in Salt Lake county, played at the U of U from 2001-2004, and started his coaching career at Utah in 2007 where he would become one of the top recruiters and Defensive Coordinators in the nation.
Utah Football is in good hands, let the Head Coach Morgan Scalley era begin!
Go Utes!
No scandals
No recruiting violations
Built a program on physicality
Always took the blame instead of players
Always credited players for program success
Never asked for spotlight
Salute to you Coach 🫡🫡

The @TheUFL cant let this go unpunished. Bush league move towards the best fans in the league and the only reason it’s still alive.
