D.L. Wilhite will be evaluated by the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers football team to determine where he will best fit in the line-up. With potential to succeed on either side of the ball, Wilhite played primarily as running back yet Scout rates him as the No. 89 defensive end in the country. In 2008, he was redshirted and did not see any action. In 2009, D.L. Wilhite earned Freshman All-Big Ten honors from The Sporting News and Second-Team Freshman All-America honors from Phil Steele.
