on top of the list for a second straight update. Standing at 6’3″ 170-Pounds, White displays a solid frame for an ATH.
He can play across the field, and mainly is used at skill positions for the U-Prep squad. White, displays elite speed, paired with good footwork. He has a high IQ, and is hard to tackle. I like his vision, and his ability to reach his top speed with a quick burst in on full display on film.

. White sees his ranking slide down one position in the update. The 6’3″ 170-Pound Prospect is the perfect size to play at the WR position, but has good versatility allowing him to play across the field.
White played across the offense this season, with snaps at QB/RB/WR shown on his film. His footwork is outstanding, and he showcases elite speed with the ball in his hands. He has a high IQ, and displays the ability to carve through defenses at any time.

displays a good build for an ATH. The University Prep prospect is one of my favorite players in the 2027 class.
He is one of the most physically and athletically gifted players I have watched in this class. It is hard to project him as he plays everywhere on the offense for UPREP. He is extremely explosive and shows a high motor and a good burst of speed on tape. His IQ is off the charts and sets him above the rest in his class.
White is a freak athlete from WNY who given his frame is most likely a WR, but he has developed traits at every offensive position making him hard to predict. Look for White to light up stat sheets this fall.

If you remove positional skills from the equation,

is one of the most, if not the most, athletically gifted player in New York.
At 6’3, White still needs to fill out, but he shows freakish levels of explosiveness on tape, and he is incredibly loose and twitchy for a prospect so tall and lean.
His position at the next level is likely TBD, both because he currently plays all over the UPrep offense and because of the development of those positional skills. Wide receiver makes a lot of sense, but depending on how he grows and develops physically, you could argue for several different positions.

White a freak athlete out of UPrep picked up offers from West Virginia & Buffalo this week. He recently has been one of the hottest names in New York and I touched on his season just a couple days ago.

White may be the best pure athlete on this list – he does it all for UPrep and will likely be their QB next season with the graduation of Stony Brook Commit

– White can take handoffs, play the WR position, was extremely effective when he filled in at QB, made plays as the punter taking botched snaps for touchdowns, and was a very effective returner.
White has a basketball background and is every bit of 6’3. What is so impressive about White’s tape and why he has so much Division 1 interest is his agility, change of direction, long speed, and bend/flexibility. In basic terms, not many guys 6’3 can move the way White does.
There is not enough tape at a single position to really hone in on positional skillsets to get a full evaluation, which is fine because he is a sophomore, but White clearly has the athleticism of an FBS prospect.

White, who is a do-it-all athlete for UPrep, picked up his first offer from Syracuse – he has supplanted himself as one of the most dynamic athletes in the state this fall, and the two-sport athlete (Basketball) has some dynamic measurables and explosiveness in his game.
