Jordan Whitehead has Pitt's secondary primed for turnaround

This offseason, Pitt's coaches have provided the secondary with what amounts to a horror movie marathon. The game film from last season was split up, and each day, players rewatch one big play after another. It's brutal.

But there's another thing Jordan Whitehead noticed watching the film, too.

"It was the same mistakes over and over," Whitehead said. "And it's correctable."

It's spring, a time for silver linings. The ugliness of last season -- five games with 400 passing yards allowed, 66.3 percent of receiver targets caught -- is in the rearview mirror, and Whitehead is convinced there's a fresh perspective within the group that will make all the difference.
