Utah strength and conditioning coach Greg Argust resigned on Monday, a university spokesperson confirmed to the Deseret News.

After Morgan Scalley took over as Utah’s head coach in the wake of Kyle Whittingham stepping down, the Utes promoted Argust to the director of football sports performance role. Longtime football strength and conditioning coach Doug Elisaia, who had held the role since 2006, followed Whittingham to Michigan in the same positon.

Argust had been with Utah for over 20 years and was recently praised by Scalley during spring camp for his work with the players in the weight room.

“Greg Argust and his staff did an amazing job during the offseason of building guys up, developing them, getting the weight on, getting the strength and the power,” Scalley said on March 19.

With a little over four months before the Utes’ season-opener against Idaho on Sept. 3, the Utes now need to get a new head strength and conditioning coach.
