5 Michigan players that Kyle Whittingham must retain at all costs

After a long two weeks (and change) Michigan football hired head coach Kyle Whittingham on Friday, who agreed to a five-year deal to be the Wolverines' head coach.

Whittingham will make $8.2 million this season for Michigan on the five-year deal, and more importantly, he's getting to work right away, heading to Orlando to meet with the team. He will not be coaching Utah in the Las Vegas Bowl.

Kyle Whittingham’s five-year deal at Michigan averages $8.2 million per year over the course of the deal, sources tell me and @danwetzel.
