A 3-star recruit, White, a 6-foot-2, 182-pounder, is considered the No. 7 player in the state of Virginia and has excelled on both sides of the ball, specifically wide receiver and defensive back. He’s drawn major attention from a number of college football programs as a result and will have quite a list to choose from when he makes his decision in May, just months before his senior season begins.
