  "account": "Norman football linebacker Kingston Whitham, a senior, is featured in The Oklahoman's Prep Spotlight series. The article delves into his personal interests and aspirations beyond his time on the field.\n\nWhitham reveals a hidden talent for mathematics, demonstrating that his academic abilities extend beyond the football field. His pregame musical preferences include artists Kodak Black and Chief Keef, suggesting a taste for hip-hop music to energize him before games.\n\nLooking toward the future, Whitham aspires to run his own sports business, indicating a keen interest in the business side of athletics. Among the many talented athletes he has faced during his career, Oklahoma State University running back and former Jenks star Kaydin Jones stands out as the best competitor he has encountered.\n\nWhitham's versatility extends beyond football, as he believes he could excel in basketball as well. This dual talent could make him a valuable asset in various sports settings.\n\nOklahoma City-based sports journalist Jordan Davis covers high school sports for The Oklahoman.
