Editing Randy White (American football) (section)

==College career==
White was [[Recruiting (college athletics)|recruited]] by the [[University of Maryland]] and played as a [[Fullback (American football)|fullback]] for the [[Maryland Terrapins football|Terrapins]] during his freshman year. Maryland finished the year with only 2 wins and White did little worth noting during that year. During his sophomore season, new [[head coach]] [[Jerry Claiborne]] moved Randy to [[defensive end]], noting that he had the skill to be "one of the best five linemen in the U.S." The move was a natural fit, as by his senior year, he was, as Claiborne put it, "as fast as some of the offensive backs I had coached." In that senior year (1974), he won numerous awards and honors, including the [[Outland Trophy]], the [[Lombardi Award]], and the [[Atlantic Coast Conference]] Player of the Year.  Though Maryland lost in the [[Liberty Bowl]] that season to [[Tennessee Volunteers football|Tennessee]], Randy was named the game's Most Valuable Player.  In 1994, he was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame and in 2000 was named to [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] sports All-time [[All-America]] Team.<ref name=ABC>'''Vancil, Mark''' ed., ''ABC Sports College Football All-Time All-America Team''. 2000, Hyperion Press {{ISBN|0-7868-6710-8}}</ref><ref name=CHOF>{{College Football HoF|id=1964|name=Randy White|accessdate=December 5, 2006}}</ref> In 1999, ''[[Sports Illustrated]]'' included him on its All-Century Team for college football.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Maisel |first=Ivan |date=August 16, 1999 |title=Team of the Century |url=https://vault.si.com/vault/1999/08/16/team-of-the-century |journal=Sports Illustrated |volume=91 |issue=6}}</ref>
