Good thing here, huge drop off after he got hurt. I’m not sure how that question mark got there. It has happened, he got another year.

Best news Ive heard so far when it comes to players. Hope he gets back to the same form as before.

Hold on, insta was misleading, says he will be back in 26 if waiver is approved now. We are feeling very optimistic about this.

He should get a waiver easily.

He should be 100% by August at over 10 full months post op

He is coming back if he gets the year break. Still waiting to hear back from the NCAA

He should easily get the waiver. If Shapen got one last year and played in 3 full games, Whitson should have no problem getting one when he only played 6 quarters.

there was defiantly a drop off in D when he went out! We may win a couple more games if he hadn't gotten hurt

I didn’t have high hopes for Will, based on recent portal additions, but you could tell very quickly that he was legit.

If we get 4 better than him we will have the best DL in the league.

Manning at safety is possibly getting another year as well. That will be big for us too

I wonder how he is going to pull that off looking at his career? He played 5 games at Tyler JC, 12 at Co-Lin and then 12 at Old Dominion and then one year at MSU.

It's worth a shot.

More like completely fell off of a cliff.

When Whitson got hurt the burden went to the safeties.

It's worth a shot.

The "juco years don't count" argument, aka the Pavia Rule, or the "5 to play 5" argument that's pending in TN district court now.

Yeah, and show me a team that the safeties lead the team in tackles by a substantial margin and I will show you a very bad defensive football. This has been our "D" for the last three seasons. Hoping for much better DL and LB play in 2026.
