SALT LAKE CITY — Kyle Whittingham is going back to where it all began.
Whittingham has hired Ogden native Andy Ludwig, who was serving as the offensive coordinator and tight end coach at Vanderbilt, as the program’s newest offensive coordinator, according to sources close to the program. The news was first reported by the Salt Lake Tribune Thursday night.
Ludwig was first hired by Whittingham in 2005 to serve as his offensive coordinator when Whittingham accepted the head coaching position.
Ludwig served in the role as offensive coordinator through the 2008 season when Utah claimed a Sugar Bowl victory over Alabama.
