BOISE, Idaho — Boise State standout George Holani on Tuesday was one of 29 running backs to receive an invitation to the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.
The prestigious nod marks the 20th consecutive year a Bronco has landed an invite to the NFL Combine. Holani could extend Boise State's streak of having a player selected in the NFL Draft to 15 later this spring.
Holani ended his career on The Blue with 34 total touchdowns and 4,479 all-purpose yards, which ranks 10th in program history. The 5-foot-11, 210-pound back rushed for 3,596 yards and 26 touchdowns as a Bronco, adding another 777 yards on 88 receptions.
The California native is one of 321 prospects included on the league's list of 2024 invitees, issued Tuesday. Holani joins fellow Mountain West players Dallin Holker (TE - Colorado State), Frank Crum (OL - Wyoming), Mohamed Kamara (DL - Colorado State), Easton Gibbs (LB - Wyoming) and Carlton Johnson (DB - Fresno State).
Holani is the 56th Bronco to earn a spot in the scouting combine. KTVB Sports Director Jay Tust on Tuesday was told kicker Jonah Dalmas received an invite, but he declined as he elected to return to Boise State for the upcoming season.
Jeff Lindsley in 1989 became the first Boise State player to earn an invite to the combine. Since 2005, at least one Bronco has been invited to participate in the event each year. Tyreque Jones, John Ojukwu and JL Skinner were invited to the 2023 event.
The 2024 NFL Scouting Combine runs from Feb. 26 through March 4, with coverage on NFL Network and NFL+ starting Feb. 29. Holani will work out in Indianapolis on Saturday, March 2.
