Jahiem White brings explosive big-play juice to West Virginia’s backfield
In the 2024 season, Jahiem White led West Virginia in rushing with 844 yards on 148 carries and 7 touchdowns, showing the compact, tackle-breaking burst that makes him a fit for offenses that want chunk plays from the backfield.[9] At 5'7" and about 190 pounds, he is a low-center-of-gravity runner whose value goes beyond raw volume: he’s proven he can score, contribute as a receiver, and handle a featured role, even if his size makes him a better fit as an explosive lead back or complementary weapon than a classic workhorse.[2][9]
