The Auburn Tigers suffered through a poor season in 2024 in large part because of Hugh Freeze's offense, including subpar quarterback play.

According to 247Sports, White was the No. 5 quarterback in the 2024 recruiting cycle and Auburn’s fifth-highest-rated signee of the class behind players such as wide receiver Cam Coleman and linebacker Demarcus Riddick.

Former Auburn quarterback Walker White will play his next college football chapter for head coach Dave Aranda at Baylor. The Arkansas native made his decision official on Saturday. “I’m pumped,” White told On3.

Walker White announced his transfer decision Saturday, committing to Baylor after one season at Auburn. White hit the portal on Dec. 14, becoming the 10th transfer to commit to Dave Aranda’s program this offseason.

Per his Instagram, former Auburn quarterback Walker White has announced that he is transferring to Baylor after spending his freshman season on the Plains. The announcement comes two weeks after Hank Brown announced his intent to transfer to Iowa.

White was one of three Auburn quarterbacks to enter the transfer portal after the season, and the second to find a new home. With White, Payton Thorne, Hank Brown and Holden Geriner all gone, Hugh Freeze will be working with an entirely new group of scholarship quarterbacks.

Baylor lost 6-foot-2 senior Dequan Finn to the portal. Finn appeared in three games for the Bears in 2024 and went 23 of 43 on passing attempts for 307 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. Finn also picked up 66 yards and two touchdowns off 21 rushing attempts.

Former Auburn QB Walker White entered the portal after a single season on the Plains, and now will head to the Big 12 to play at Baylor.
