Whitlock has seen it all, not only on the field, but behind the scenes. Some of his favorite memories are documented in his memoir, I Wasn't Expecting All This . Whitlock's career began in 1985, when Kennesaw State University hired him as assistant women's basketball coach and assistant slowpitch softball coach. In 1986, he took over as head softball coach and was instrumental in building one of the most respected college softball programs in the country.
