Intriguing prospect as a linebacker. Has the frame to add weight without losing much if any speed. Plays faster than he times. Good initial burst. Reacts quickly to his opponent and has agility to change directions. Plays with some toughness. Would need to prove himself as LB in camp however.

Whitaker stands at 6 offers, including Indiana. Plans on visiting Wisconsin this weekend, where he thinks he will get offered.

I wouldn't mind seeing Xavier get an offer this weekend. He could probably play multiple positions at the next level....RB, safety, bulk up LB, etc.

By the way, Xavier comes in at the #2 in-state RB behind Leighton Settle, according to WSN:
