Western Kentucky has reportedly shown interest in South Florida transfer quarterback Mike White.

The Tampa Bay (Fla.) Times’ Joey Knight reported Tuesday that WKU is among the teams that has inquired about White, along with Florida, Southern Miss and Florida International.

South Florida announced White’s departure March 31. The rising junior quarterback, who will have two years of eligibility remaining, released a statement Thursday via Twitter.

“The relationships I’ve built and memories I’ve made at this university made this decision very hard for me,” White wrote.

The 6-foot-4, 211-pound White earned USF’s starting job in fall camp last season and started the first eight games for the Bulls and former WKU coach Willie Taggart.

He ultimately appeared in 11 games and started 10, completing 122 of 242 passes for 1,639 yards and eight touchdowns with seven interceptions.

He started five games as a freshman and passed for 1,083 yards with three TDs and nine interceptions.

White was rated a three-star prospect by Rivals out of University School in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
