Chester, SC
Biography
A quarterback, receiver and defensive back at Chester, Whitlock earned All-Region and All-State honors in both 2006 and 2007 in addition to playing the Shrine Bowl and the ESPN/Under Armour All-Star Game. Between rushing, passing and receiving as a senior he totaled 1,584 yards while picking off four passes on defense. Both Rivals.com and Scout.com rated Whitlock the number three player in the state and he picked the Gamecocks over UNC and Alabama. He began the 2008 season as a wide receiver but was moved to defense early in the year and broke up a Tim Tebow to Riley Cooper pass against Florida that year. Whitlock was a part time starter at corner each of the next two seasons. Against Kentucky in 2009 he had one and a half tackles for loss and broke up a pass. He forced a fumble against Auburn in 2010 and picked off a pass in the win over Furman. Whitlock was a starter again as a senior and had big games against Auburn (two interceptions) and Vanderbilt (3 tackles, 1 for loss and a pass breakup).
