old-school trench toughness with Tide-ready versatility
Todd Whitmore is a powerful, physical interior lineman whose profile shows the kind of mass and strength Alabama usually loves in the trenches; in the 1998 recruiting notes, he was listed at 6-foot-5, 280 pounds with a 390-pound bench, and he arrived with JUCO production, including 75 tackles and 4 sacks in one season[1][2]. He was described as a player who could help on either side of the ball, but the consistent theme was leverage, brute strength, and a willingness to do the dirty work—classic “make the other team miserable” material[1][2]. The upside is clear if you want a physical, low-drama interior presence, though the available information is historical rather than current, so recent Alabama performance data is not available here[1][2].
