If Kyle Whittingham thought he was going to have some quiet contemplation as he worked to figure out how to fix Michigan football, he would be wrong.
The former Utah coach took over a 9-3 Michigan football team that currently sits at 5-5 and looks to be in real danger of missing a bowl game, unless it can win against undefeated UCLA and then on the road at Ohio State. The dust hadn’t even begun to settle from his worst drubbing as the Wolverines head coach yet, a 31-7 loss at Oregon, before he started hearing it from fans of the program he coaches — 2,000 miles away from his current home.

According to The Athletic’s Austin Meek, Whittingham was heckled after leaving his postgame press conference by Michigan fans who were in attendance at the game. They had apparently waited around to get the opportunity to voice their displeasure with the direction of the program personally.
Whittingham did eventually change the program’s direction this past Sunday when he fired offensive coordinator Jason Beck, and while the offense used scheme and formation more suitable for the players on the roster, they were able to muster just seven points against the Ducks.
