Auburn Quarterback and Former Top-50 Prospect Walker White Sets Baylor Visit

Auburn quarterback Walker White is scheduled to take an official visit to Baylor starting on Friday.

The 6-foot-3, 225-pound prospect redshirted this past season but saw some action in a win over UL-Monroe, completing two passes for 18 yards.

White was a consensus four-star prospect and top 100 recruit in the 2024 class. 247Sports had him rated as the No. 41 prospect in the nation and the No. 5 quarterback in the class.

During his high school career, White threw for 6,740 yards with 80 touchdowns and 26 interceptions while competing 56.7% of his passes. He also added 1,842 yards and 30 touchdowns on the ground.

During his high school recruitment, he received offers from Alabama, Clemson, Florida, LSU, Miami, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Pitt, TCU and Texas A&M, among others.

Former Baylor quarterbacks coach Shawn Bell made him a priority in the class, but White ultimately chose Auburn over Clemson and Baylor.

Baylor currently has three quarterbacks on scholarship: redshirt senior Sawyer Robertson, redshirt freshman Nate Bennett and true freshman Edward Griffin.

It seemed like Baylor would take a backup quarterback out of the portal, but this move suggests the staff is targeting a guy who will be the future of the position.

White has four years of eligibility remaining.
