Top quarterback target Walker White commits to Auburn

Auburn has landed its top quarterback target.

[autotag]Hugh Freeze[/autotag] and Co. have landed Auburn’s top quarterback target.

Four-star quarterback [autotag]Walker White[/autotag] committed to the Tigers Friday. White, a member of the 2024 recruiting class, picked Auburn over Baylor and Clemson.

The 6-foot-3, 215-pounder is the No. 13 quarterback and No. 142 overall recruit in the 247Sports composite ranking. The Little Rock native is also the No. 1 player from Arkansas.

After hiring Freeze on Nov. 28 he quickly prioritized White. The Tigers offered him on Dec. 20 and visited his school in January before he took an unofficial visit to the Plains on Jan. 16.

He is Auburn’s third commit of the 2024 class and first offensive player. He joins four-star cornerbacks [autotag]Jayden Lewis[/autotag] and [autotag]A’Mon Lane[/autotag].

White did it all for Little Rock Christian Academy as a junior. He completed 53.2% of his passes for 1,975 yards and 25 touchdowns to nine interceptions. He added 837 yards and 16 rushing touchdowns for the Warriors.

He will be able to use his legs when he makes it to the Plains but he is a passer first with a big arm. He has the ability to elevate Auburn’s offense and can now help try to bring more weapons to Auburn.

Oklahoma Sooners offer 2024 4-star quarterback Walker White

Oklahoma issues an offer to the top player in the state of Arkansas, four-star quarterback Walker White.

The Oklahoma Sooners haven’t been shy about trying to add quarterback talent in the 2024 recruiting class. A departure from the previous regime, Jeff Lebby wants to add a top quarterback every cycle. As they await a decision on four-star quarterback [autotag]Michael Hawkins[/autotag], the Sooners joined the fray for another top quarterback with an offer to the No. 1 player in the state of Arkansas, [autotag]Walker White[/autotag].

White is a top 10 quarterback in the 2024 recruiting cycle and ranks NO. 143 in the 247Sports composite rankings. He holds 21 Power Five offers with heavy interest leaning toward Ole Miss, Arkansas, Auburn, Clemson, and Texas A&M. With the recent offensive coordinator movement, the door could have opened for the Sooners to land White.

White is a big dude at 6-foot-3 and 225 pounds. Despite the size, he displays impressive athleticism and has parlayed that into some really good rushing numbers for Little Rock Christian Academy. In 2022, White ran for 837 yards and 15 touchdowns to go along with his 1,975 passing yards and 25 touchdowns.

When Ole Miss originally offered Walker White back in December of 2021, Jeff Lebby was still the offensive coordinator for the Rebels. Lebby’s connection to the talented high school prospect could give the Sooners a shot in the quarterback’s recruitment.

Alabama extends an offer to 2024 QB from Arkansas

Alabama extended a recent offer to 2024 quarterback Walker White.

On Wednesday, the Alabama coaching staff extended an offer to 2024 dual-threat quarterback Walker White. He is the thirteenth quarterback that the Crimson Tide has offered in the 2024 recruiting cycle.

White has already received 19 offers up to this point. He still has some time left to make his decision as he is just a junior at Little Rock Christian Academy. Last season, he passed for 2,010 yards and 25 touchdowns. He also rushed for 487 yards and five touchdowns.

Alabama’s offensive coordinators have been able to implement dual-threat quarterbacks into their offense over the years. Some signal callers that have had success over the years are Blake Sims and Jalen Hurts. It will definitely be interesting to see how the coaching staff decided to approach his recruitment for the foreseeable future.

Roll Tide Wire breaks downWalker White’s recruiting profile.

This 2024 4-star QB picked up an offer from Florida in June

After landing a quarterback in the class of 2023, Florida is shifting focus to the signal callers of 2024.

After missing out on [autotag]Jaden Rashada[/autotag] to Miami, [autotag]Billy Napier[/autotag] pulled off a much-needed flip of [autotag]Marcus Stokes [/autotag]to land Florida a quarterback in the class of 2023. Now it’s time to start focusing on the class of 2024 and four-star Little Rock Christian Academy (Arkansas) quarterback [autotag]Walker White[/autotag] has caught the staff’s collective eye.

White was in town in the final weeks of June for one of UF’s camps and got a chance to work out for the team, according to 247Sports.

“They had like an offensive lineman defensive lineman camp going on, but Coach O’Hara took me and the other quarterback they had there that day and put us through a workout,” White said. “We did some drills and I think I did good and we both came out with the offer. It was really cool working out with him and I see him as someone who is a quarterback guru.”

The visit sounds very similar to what 2025 quarterback target Davi Belfort experienced when he picked up an offer in June. While O’Hara did most of the coaching, Billy Napier did take some time to speak with White and introduce himself as the head of the program.

It’s still very early in the process for White. It could be another year before things get serious for him, but he’s expecting Florida to be in the mix when that time does come around.

“My interest with Florida is really high,” he said. “I see them being a top-five school for me. I really enjoyed my time I had there. I could see myself going there. One of the biggest things I like about them are the coaches I would be around there. It’s an opportunity for me to be around a lot of great offensive minds if I went there.”

White is ranked No. 161 overall on the 2024 247Sports composite and No. 12 among quarterbacks. The On3 consensus has him a bit lower at No. 217 nationally and No. 16 at his position, but he’s still ranked the top talent out of Arkansas by both services.
