One of the top quarterbacks in HBCU history could be returning as Howard’s football coach.
Ted White, who still owns much of the MEAC’s passing records, was offered the Bison’s head coaching position interim president Wayne Frederick Friday afternoon.
White would replace Larry Scott, who resigned to take the tight ends’ coaching position at Auburn last month.
White, 49, passed for 9,808 yards and 92 touchdowns as the Bison’s signal caller, earning the MEAC Offensive Player of the Year Award in 1996.
After a professional career in NFL Europe and the CFL, White turned to coaching, where he has served in various capacities at HBCUs such as Texas Southern, Southern, Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Prairie View A&M, and Howard as offensive coordinator and assistant head coach under Gary “Flea” Harrell and Rayford Petty.
White is currently offensive analyst at Maryland before and was quarterbacks coach at UCLA in 2024.
