Michigan will likely fire Whittingham. If they do they will at least court Deboer. They would be crazy not to. At best it's a lateral move for Deboer, albeit with a lot bigger salary. Michigan is only one of a few schools that hasn't had to pay previous coach buyouts and they didn't sign Whittingham to a stupid money level contract. They can buy him out for a paltry 24M. Thought's on whether he would be interested???? Would a 10 year 150M contract give him pause?

You should be more concerned about Kirby retiring or bolting to the NFL.

You think Michigan will pay him a “lot” more than $12.5 million a year? LOL.

I think he gets more than one year. He'll start next season on the hottest of hot seats.

They are 4-4 and their last 3 games are Oregon, UCLA and OSU? You may want to reconsider. Meanwhile Utah is undefeated at #2 in the polls, suggesting Willingham wasn't the reason for their success. Utah is doing better now that he's gone. Not a good look.

They're not firing him after one season, especially seeing he inherited someone else's QB. They'd be absolutely stupid to fire him after one season.
