Proporta Whitaker 48 was an accident, as a true freshman, but earn an additional year at SJSU, if successful, this graduate in the summer.
His return would be something pressure raw but talented rotation of forces Quarterback Marcus Arroyo, and immediately made the Spartans one of the preseason favorites in the league. Last year, a total of 7-5 face SJSU and the fourth in the WAC (5-3), hands and national ranking TCU the only loss of the conference on the way.
During a 28-17 loss at Tulsa’s final season Spartans cost of a bowl berth, there was a hurricane of gold needed shot in the arm.
