 2016 (r-Jr.) | 14/14: White had the unenviable task of following up WKU’s all-everything quarterback in Brandon Doughty and responded in dynamic fashion, leading an offensive attack that led the FBS in points per game (45.5) and was No. 3 in passing efficiency (174.87), No. 5 in total offense (523.1) and No. 5 in passing offense (336.8). White finished his first campaign on The Hill No. 3 nationally in passing efficiency (181.4) and passing yards per completion (15.58) – both the top marks in Conference USA. White completed 280 of 416 passes for 4,363 yards with 37 touchdowns to just seven interceptions. White’s eight games of 300 yards or more passing were fifth-most nationally and his 76 completions of 68 yards or more were second-most nationally. He led the nation in passing completions of 30 yards (44) and 40 yards (24) or more. White joined Doughty as the only quarterbacks in school history to eclipse the 4,000 yard mark in a season while his 181.39 passer rating set a single-season school record. White had a completion percentage of 65-percent or better in eight games, and against C-USA opponents, he was even more lethal, completing 71.1 percent of his passes for 25 touchdowns to just two interceptions. 2015 (Jr.): White sat out the season due to NCAA transfer requirements. At USF: White was a two-year starter for the Bulls at quarterback where he completed 215-of-417 (51.5-percent) pass attempts for 2,722 yards with 11 touchdowns and 16 interceptions. White was thrown into the fire as a true freshman, starting five games for the Bulls in 2013 and 10 games in 2014 as a true sophomore. His best outing came in his debut, throwing for 311 yards on 26-of-41 passing with two touchdowns at Houston (10/31/14). White was presented with the Frank Morsani Leadership Award at the annual USF post-season banquet following his freshman season. HS/Misc.: White prepped for Roger Harriott at University School and was named the 3A Florida Player of the Year as a senior. He finished fifth in the Florida Dairy Farmers Mr. Football voting and was a second-team 3A all-state selection by The Associated Press. White was named the Broward County Player of the Year and a first-team all-Broward pick by the Miami Herald as he completed 176-of-256 passes (68.8%) for 2,201 yards, 22 TDs and just two INTs. He led University to a 13-0 record and the 3A state championship and anchored an offense that posted 346.2 yards and 39.8 points per game. He went 22-of-31 for 282 yards and two TDs iin the Sun’s state-title victory over Madison County/ White was also a standout baseball player and was named a Louisville Slugger All-American as a junior. He earned first-team all-Broward honors from the Miami Herald as a pitcher, going 9-2 with a 0.43 ERA.

White has always played quarterback. The talented Hilltoppers quarterback is the prospect under center that is the mid-round selection with huge potential.

Playing in three different offensive systems while at Western Kentucky, White has proved he is a quick learner and master of preparation. He possesses pro-typical NFL size that teams covet (6-foot-4 and 225 pounds).

The Pembroke Pines (Fla.) native originally began his collegiate career at South Flordia before becoming the Conference USA Player of the Year in 2016 after transferring to Western Kentucky.

White is a excellent leader with all the intangibles. Very good accuracy and reads coverage’s well. The arm strength is more than adequate to play at the next level. Can make plays with his feet. He has the ability to be the quarterback drafted a little later that can eventually become an NFL starter in the league. Remember heading into the 2017 NFL season, 20 teams had plans to use a first-round quarterback under center. It is vy difficult to get your shot outside the top tier.
