Whyte did not get a chance to become a star at FAU because of the presence of Devin "Motor" Singletary. However, before leaving school a year early, the Loxahatchee, Florida native did earn second-team All-Conference USA nod as a returner (19-545-28.7, one TD in kickoffs) and honorable mention as a running back (134-866-6.5, eight TDs rushing; 10-160-16.0, two TDs receiving). Whyte was an honorable mention all-conference pick as a kick returner as a redshirt freshman in 2016 (39-1,002-25.7) and a sophomore in 2017 (23-568-24.7, one TD).
