Power ranking Michigan head coach candidates: The 'focus' is on Kyle Whittingham

The search for the next Michigan football head coach has been jumbled, but there's a chance things could be coming to a close soon.

That needs to be the case for a program that is heading into the third week of the search to replace the fired and disgraced Sherrone Moore.

Kalen DeBoer and Kenny Dillingham were popular targets early. Jeff Brohm picked up some steam last week, but it hasn't materialized into anything.

Contract extensions for DeBoer and Brohm haven't been announced yet, so you never know. But after some reporting from ESPN's Pete Thamel, there is a new frontrunner for the Michigan football head-coaching job and it's Utah's Kyle Whittingham.
