Michigan Pays Big for Stability, Locking In Kyle Whittingham for $8.2M/Year

Kyle Whittingham’s 5-year Michigan deal averages $8.2 million annually and is 75% guaranteed, per ESPN, with his 2026 salary set near $8 million. It means the overall deal roughly stands at $41 million of which $30.75 comes as guaranteed. Pete Thamel said Whittingham “joked he was in the transfer portal” and has now “found a transfer to Michigan,” likely skipping Utah’s bowl.
