Q&A with Cowboy Football linebacker Trip White
March 27, 2026 | Cowboy Football
Oklahoma State redshirt senior linebacker Trip White
Â
On how he's adjusting to the new teammates:
"When you first come in and you don't know anyone, and there's over 80 new people, I kind of felt like the new person on the team. Other people already knew each other, but if you just be a good teammate, you'll fit right in. I know most of the defense, so that's the good part. I just have to know more of the offensive guys."
Â
On how the team is coming together:
"It's going pretty good. Everyone is buying in, the team is locking in, trying to come together. We're still trying to find our identity. The transition was pretty good."
Â
On linebackers coach Reggie Johnson:
"Coach Johnson is a cool guy. I love coach Johnson. He's funny, but he's a business guy too. He's a good teacher."
Â
On why he stayed at Oklahoma State:
"I really loved the OSU culture. I want to see us win and I know it's going to be this season."
Â
On adjusting to the new linebacker room:
"It's been good. Everyone's cool. I love my linebacker room, Tate [Romney], Ethan [Wesloski], everyone… It's been good times. We've been having little team get togethers where we get to have fun, but when we get here it's about business.Â
Â
On the impact Ethan Wesloski has had on him so far:
"We were in the film together earlier because he knows the defense. He got me in the film room early and got me used to the system pretty well."
Â
On the other OSU athletics:
"I went to a softball game the other day, that was my first time going to a softball game. It was pretty cool."
