White looming large for Bobcats' passing game

Papi White is a jitterbug, a tightly-bundled package of muscle and sinew quicker than a hiccup and as difficult to stop once it’s started.

To hear him tell it, however, Ohio’s play-making fifth-year receiver is a hulking force, an irresistible force of nature.

“I just play bigger than what I am,” said White, who doesn’t look even a smidge bigger than his listed playing size of 5-foot-9 and 177 pounds.

“That’s just a mindset. I honestly see myself as 6-4 and 220. Every day,” he continued with a grin.

“Oh yeah, they hear me say it all the time,” White said, gesturing to Ohio’s collection of cornerbacks stretching nearby.
