There's a rumor that Umetsu and Utsunomiya had a falling out.
Unfortunately Umetsu's blog seems to corroborate it.

Umetsu meets with Utsunomiya. Probably asks him to storyboard/direct/AD.

Around one month later, Umetsu says something really depressing happened, and says he had lunch with an animator and director.

Conclusion: Utsunomiya brings the storyboard, picks a fight with Umetsu like he did with Kon, and walks out on him, fucking up his schedule.
Umetsu is forced to go to studio Hibari to replace him.

Anyway, I wouldn't have too high hopes.
