Iowa football running back transfer commits to Mountain West program
Iowa football running back transfer commits to Mountain West program
With the Iowa Hawkeyes currently carrying a full running back room, there are only so many carries to go around to the group. The nature of that position being a deep group has one former Iowa running back committing to a new program.
With Kamari Moulton and Jaziun Patterson sitting atop the depth chart and in line for the bulk of the workload, fellow back Max White entered the transfer portal earlier this offseason in search of a new home and a chance to tote the rock.
White has since found that home as he announced via his account on X. He is transferring to the Wyoming Cowboys, a program located in Laramie, Wyoming, and part of the Mountain West Conference.
Max White joined the Iowa Hawkeyes in 2021 as a walk-on before cracking the field in the 2023 season in multiple capacities.
White has appeared in 27 games for the Hawkeyes with nine rushes for 38 yards and a touchdown under his belt. He has also returned kickoffs, averaging 18.6 yards per return on five return attempts.
A product of John F. Kennedy High School and Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Max White comes in at 5-foot-10 and 185 pounds, per 247Sports.
Wyoming went 3-9 last season but saw a strong run prior. The Cowboys went 9-4 in 2023, 7-6 in 2022, and 7-6 in 2021.
