Utah has extended coach Kyle Whittingham's contract through the 2021 season, it announced Friday.
Whittingham, 57, has compiled a 104-50 record in 12 seasons since replacing Urban Meyer at the end of the 2004 season and has a 10-1 in bowl games. He has been at the school since 1994, when he was hired as the defensive line coach.
Among FBS programs, only Iowa's Kirk Ferentz and TCU's Gary Patterson have longer tenures with their current school.
Whittingham guided the program for its final six seasons in the Mountain West and into the Pac-12 in 2011.
