" Whenever Kyle Whittingham decides to retire, the University of Utah has its next football coach picked out."
"Utah announced defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley as the successor to head coach Kyle Whittingham on Monday morning."
"Utah Football and Utah Athletics have always been home to me and my family, and I am honored to receive this distinction," Scalley said. "... I remain committed to my continued growth as a coach and person, and as a member of the amazing University of Utah community. Our staff is excited to start a new era of Utah Football in the Big 12 this fall under Coach Whittingham and to continue the traditions that have become a part of our proud history."
" Despite Scalley's announcement, Utah's head coach is under contract with the Utes until 2027, where he would earn a base salary of $6.5 million. Whittingham is also guaranteed the right to become a "special assistant to the athletics director" when he decides to retire.
That position would be part of a five-year agreement that will pay $995,000 for each year.
"Morgan Scalley is an exceptional football coach and his naming as the head coach in waiting at the University of Utah is a testament to that," Whittingham"

Probably a smart move since Scalley has been mentioned as a possible HC at several places.
