Freshman linebacker Laquon Whisenhunt brings SEC-style thump to Alcorn State
Laquon Whisenhunt arrives at Alcorn State as a compact, physical freshman linebacker with a big résumé from Jackson High: 419 career tackles in prep ball and a senior year that featured 176 stops in 15 games. He was also rated as a three-star linebacker by 247Sports and On3, with national position rankings that suggest real upside for a small-school defense. At 5-foot-11, 225 pounds, he profiles as a high-motor run defender who should fit a downhill, contact-first scheme and immediately appeal to coaches looking for toughness, reliability, and instant edge in the middle.
