This season, he has 915 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground. He has added a receiving element to his game this season with 22 receptions for 217 yards and one touchdown.

At 6-foot and 215 pounds, White has a solid build for an NFL running back. His improvements as a pass-catcher really helps his draft stock. He still has more eligibility remaining though and may return to school to continue adding to his game to increase his stock.
