Troy Taylor is gone, and it’s not a matter of him wanting to be a head coach at a place like Sacramento State.
In keeping with Utah’s legacy of ever-revolving now-you-see-them-now-you-don’t offensive coordinators, Taylor is out of here because Kyle Whittingham wanted him out, according to people close to the program who know. Some will attempt to pretty the thing up, which is to say, power-wash the truth, but it’s just as plain as that.
Taylor wanted to spread the field, be creative, innovative and chuck the rock around. Whittingham wanted to simply ground-and-pound it, with a bit of passing sprinkled in.
