Malik White Commits to SMU
St. John Bosco cornerback Malik White has committed to Southern Methodist University for the class of 2027. White, a 5-foot-11, 170-pound prospect, chose SMU over offers from several other programs. The Braves' standout is expected to contribute immediately to the Mustangs' secondary, which employs a aggressive 4-2-5 scheme. SMU's defense is expected to feature multiple cornerbacks, giving White an opportunity to compete for significant playing time. Academically, White is drawn to SMU's Lyle School of Engineering, which offers a strong program in his desired field of study. White previously held a commitment to UCLA before decommitting in April. He attended SMU's summer camp in June, where he reportedly impressed coaches with his athleticism and technique. White's commitment adds depth to SMU's 2027 recruiting class, which is expected to be one of the top classes in the American Athletic Conference.
