Whiting, a Gillett, Ark., native, joined Johnson as a starter on the Arkansas State All-Centennial Team, announced during the 2014 season, as a return specialist.  A four-year letterman from 1968-71, Whiting holds the school records for punt return yards in a game (147) and career (748).

Also a defensive back, Whiting was named All-Southland Conference as both a junior and senior.  He recorded 16 career interceptions, which still rank as the third most in school history.
