BREAKING: Michigan is expected to hire Utah HC Kyle Whittingham as the program’s new Head Coach
Kyle stepped down from Utah two weeks ago after serving as the Utes head coach from 2005-2025. He is the programs all-time leader in wins with a 177-88 coaching record
Kyle won three conference championships with Utah (2008, 2021, 2022) and was named AP National Coach of the Year in 2008, Dodd Trophy Coach of the Year in 2019, and back-to-back Pac-12 COTY in 2021 and 2022
Utah finished with a winning record in 18 of his 21 seasons as head coach, including seven 10-win seasons. Kyle holds an 11-6 Bowl game record, tied for most bowl wins by an active head coach #GoBlue

Mykolas Alekna just threw 71.29m at the Cal-Stanford Dual Meet🤯
I know we've come to expect these throws from him but a college athlete throwing these marks is nothing short of mind blowing.
Don't take this man for granted. This is one of one greatness.

With #TheMasters just behind us, I was curious, so I looked it up.
You know how many colleges have a Heisman Trophy winner, a Naismith Award winner, and a Masters green jacket winner?
4.
Texas
Ohio State
Notre Dame
and...
BYU.
That's it. That's the list.
