Walker White is excited to face his former team to open the 2025 season.
White announced his transfer from Auburn to Baylor on Dec. 28. The Tigers and Bears are set to face off in the Aug. 30 season-opener in Waco.
White recently caught up with Locked on Baylor, and shared his excitement for the game when asked about facing his former team.
“I’m planning on giving Auburn their first loss of the season whether it’s me helping the team prepare for that or playing in it myself,” White said in the interview.
White was a big recruiting win for Hugh Freeze’s staff. Out of Little Rock (Arkansas) Christian Academy, he was rated 4-stars, the No. 3 player in the state, No. 8 quarterback and No. 107 prospect overall in the Class of 2024 on the 247Sports Composite. He picked up scholarship offers from 24 programs, including Alabama, Arkansas, Baylor, Clemson, LSU, Miami, Oklahoma, Ole Miss and Texas A&M.
At Auburn, White only played against ULM. He was 2-of-5 passing for 18 yards, adding 18 yards rushing in the game. Since he played in fewer than 4 regular-season games, White will be a redshirt freshman at Baylor with 4 seasons of eligibility.
