David is not really an outspoken guy, but here s a quarterback who can lift some of the weights the stronger guys can, and just by size alone he stands out and sets a positive example. Perhaps part of his work ethic can be attributed to his role model of choice, Lawrence Taylor.  Taylor dominated the game, says Garrard.  He showed everybody that if you work hard every play, good things will happen. <br>As for special conditioning drills for quarterbacks, Whitten likes to keep his program simple.  We don t try to get too position-specific, but in the summer we focus on all types of change-of-direction drills. David is a great leader in this area, and he helps keep everyone organized. <br>One special event held in the off season is the Pirates annual strong man competition, which takes place over several days each summer and is similar to the show seen on ESPN. David loves the challenge.  The strong man competition is a lot of fun just because it s something that s not football related, and you can be competitive with the other guys on the team, says Garrard.  It just shows them that, sure, I m the quarterback, but I can do a lot of the things that you guys can do . . . even though they think that all we do is drop back and throw the football and we don t get tired or have to be as good athletically as they are. It s great just being able to get out there and compete and show them what I can do physically. <br>Although this is Whitten s first year at East Carolina, he says there was originally some concern about how he would work with a senior quarterback and, for that matter, his senior-dominated team.  With any new situation, there are always some differences in philosophies, but the basic premise is that we want guys to get into the best condition they can, says Whitten.  My number one goal is to let the players know that even though we do things a little bit differently from the previous staff, we re going to achieve the same results and we re going to get better and better we want to convince them that they re in good hands. <br>One factor that will make Whitten s job a bit easier is the construction of East Carolina s new strength training facility. The current weightroom is 6,000 square feet. The new weightroom, part of a 52,000-square-foot multipurpose center, will cover 22,000 square feet. The room will include a four-lane, 50-yard sprint track, a 20-yard x 20-yard agility area, plyometric area,IT %Zӑr!j͘y|;]-~KA41 f$VTX@˝FSX;$ɜl8U]>%Ὠ(E cmtU+dQ>wR9lf V'U^Սgro=k8UG@z |>bx*}fU^UgE"Mt\5VxG$%$:sDNucU>")mKixGkPv#lCi7ST,LLOM2j, EVz|1) [5$[kVw` />j>nL0CnGs@ܾ\\Ha4-PXf/?*Mٷ~$#\DeehJ'~L 5X|%Ʒ sC&'=0:L?iֱ%65D bcp((x 鄖~uƭdn9Tyf;ec~\kޭ.Ub S#Q"y5Ĺ]^qrX4PY?au6d I+OGȬQQG_ ebY* VN*ة jiynCG?_JSu-s~D:&0r?~~]Sbn?y,"?Kbup:dLPڨf$p~$"q;_&UN.\tKDikj*dvMdfKDc0 z?zE~Y5z,`C8~Oڄ1y^^{AҢwvr OjSҽBy>EE7kn/XuI__(E\HM#7IHG,XuKr]ģG~ yg@g]7Nd`V`98>!ߓ9'#'| E_2H^G(gOjQ3XSS/7yWׇ_2ĂkxwzE|%~},hxu_}nB٤ FXWGáM.f'U?itD2?cN%6h]h2A(w8K+ta}by[1;"Zec Xssɒ27m,w7[v]aM&d1x@ΰ9*)irMB/5o)uEv܏@xLI|x 2G ߙyz׷SR:HXsuο]}`3KN]~FS+
