White became Ohio’s all-time leader in career receiving yards in 2018 with 2,620, breaking the mark of 2,511 set by LaVon Brazill (2007-11). His 19 career receiving touchdowns are tied for the second-most in school history while his 161 career receptions rank as the fourth-most in school history.
White helped Ohio compile 40 wins over the past five seasons, including back-to-back bowl victories in the 2017 Bahamas Bowl and the 2018 DXL Frisco Bowl.
