Good stuff. There's also a highlight video embedded in the article... www.oregonlive.com/beavers/2019/07/can-oregon-state-lean-on-former-running-back-jordan-whittley-to-transform-its-defensive-line-in-2019.htmlA bigger hurdle was dealing with strength coach Mike McDonald, who was relentless with Whittley. McDonald often put Whittley through three workouts a day, which he thought was unfair as others in his situation weren’t required to do the same.
“At first, I hated Coach Mac. He was a pain in my ass,” Whittley said. “Always yelling at me. One day I said, this is stupid. And he was like, “Do you want the (expletive) job or not? We need you to play every down. We need you to be the guy. This is why we’re doing it. So, do you want the job or not?’
“I shut up and started doing the work. It made me understand that they were here for me, not against me.”

“I shut up and started doing the work. It made me understand that they were here for me, not against me.”i pull for a kid like this and he has decent burst for his size but he was out of football a long time and got way out of fighting trim. If he can make any impact i am impressed.

Our goal line offense might be unstoppable with Colletto and Whittley

I pull for him. Hope he does well. It’s not all on him. But admire an effort. Just do what you can do. Control what you can control. The rest will take care of itself.
