Boise State Football: George Holani Signing UDFA Deal With Seattle Seahawks While no Boise State football players were selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, at least one will still get a crack at making an NFL roster as a...
Huge day vs. Utah State Holani tallied 15 rushes for 178 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 45-10 victory over Utah State.
Impact While Holani wound up splitting work with both Ashton Jeanty and Jambres Dubar on Saturday, the senior running back led the way in the Broncos' backfield, topping 100 yards for the first time this season while scoring two touchdowns for a second straight game. In four games following his return from a six-game absence, Holani has averaged 6.1 yards with five touchdowns. Even with Jeanty rejoining the lineup, Holani should see a sizeable workload again next week vs. Air Force.

Two scores in win Holani tallied 16 rushes for 95 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in two targets for 43 yards during Saturday's 42-14 win over New Mexico.
Impact Holani split carries with Jambres Dubar on Saturday, with Ashton Jeanty (lower body) still unavailable. The senior running back was productive despite a reduced workload, averaging 5.9 yards per carry for a season-high 95 yards while adding a pair of touchdowns. Holani now has 249 yards and three touchdowns on 55 carries in three contests since returning from a six-game injury absence. However, with Jeanty likely returning to practice this week, Holani could see a further reduction in work next week against Utah State.

Leads backfield in loss Holani recorded 19 carries for 79 yards and a touchdown and hauled in all six targets for 61 yards during Saturday's 37-30 defeat to Fresno State.
Impact With Ashton Jeanty (lower body) still out, Holani saw another large workload Saturday, scoring his first touchdown of the year while seeing uncharacteristically heavy usage in the passing game. After missing six straight games with an undisclosed injury, Holani's tallied 232 all-purpose yards on 48 touches in Boise State's last two contests. It remains to be seen how the Bronco's backfield will look when Jeanty returns, though Holani's proven to be more than capable of handling lead-back duties.

Modest showing in return Holani notched 20 carries for 75 yards and reeled in three targets for 17 yards during Saturday's 32-7 win against Wyoming.
Impact Making his first appearance since Boise State's opener on Sep. 2, Holani wound up with a larger role than expected after Ashton Jeanty (lower body) left the game with an injury in the first half. The senior Holani saw 23 touches, though he only managed 92 all-purpose yards without finding the end zone. Holani rushed for 1,157 yards with 10 touchdowns in 13 games for the Broncos last season. He could be in for a sizeable role again next week vs. Fresno State if Jeanty isn't able to suit up.

Partaking in warmups as expected Holani (undisclosed) is warming up for Saturday's contest against Wyoming as expected, Jay Tust of KTVB Channel 7 reports.
Impact Holani was deemed probable earlier in the week, and his participation in warmups all but confirms the senior back will see his first action since the opener against Washington. However, Ashton Jeanty has starred for the Broncos in the interim, so it remains to be seen how much Holani will carve into Jeanty's work.

Expected to play Saturday Holani (undisclosed) is expected to play in Saturday's game versus Wyoming, Ron Counts of the Idaho Statesman reports.
Impact Holani hasn't played since Week 1 due to an undisclosed injury but returned to practice this week. If Holani suits up, he will likely serve as the backup running back to Ashton Jeanty.

Practice participant Sunday Holani (undisclosed) participated in Boise State's team practice Sunday, Jay Tust of KTVB Channel 7 reports.
Impact Holani was expected back "soon" as of Wednesday, and such came to fruition when he practiced Sunday. Now, the question is if him practicing again can get him back into game shape quickly for Boise State's game Saturday against Wyoming during Week 9.
OCTOBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Expected back soon Boise State coach Andy Avalos indicated Wednesday that Holani (undisclosed) is expected to be back at practice "soon", Ron Counts of the Idaho Statesman reports.
Impact Holani has not been able to see the field in Week 1, when he finished with 10 carries for 51 yards and reeling in two receptions for seven yards. Avalos also indicated the team should be healthier for the matchup against Wyoming following their bye week. Upon his return, he will likely see work behind Ashton Jeanty, who has been primarily carrying the workload out of the backfield.

Will stay with Boise State Holani will remain with Boise State in the 2023 season, Jay Tust of KTVB Channel 7 reports.
Impact Holani tweeted he was going to stay with "the same team" for next year, ending the speculation that he might head to the 2023 NFL Draft. Holani had a career-best season in 2022, racking up 1,157 yards on 221 carries for 10 touchdowns, and he also added 24 catches for 151 yards and three more scores across 13 games.

Rushes for 24 yards Holani notched seven rushes for 24 yards and reeled in all two targets for negative two yards during Saturday's 35-32 win versus North Texas.
Impact Holani finished out his fourth season with Boise State by rushing for 24 yards, his second-lowest mark of the 2022. The junior averaged 89.0 rushing yards on the season, but averaged 60.0 yards through the final three games. Holani ended up being the Broncos' clear rushing leader, accumulating 1,157 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Impact Holani has consistently been the Broncos' top rusher in 2022 and he showed it again with his 131 yards performance. He was rivaled by Taylen Green's impressive 105 yards, but ended the game as Boise State's rushing leader and brought his season total to 392 yards.

Leading Bronco rusher Holani ran for 75 yards on 16 carries Friday as Boise State was defeated by UTEP 27-10.
Impact Holani is averaging 73 rushing yards on the season, so his 75-yard performance against UTEP wasn't disappointing, but it certainly wasn't enough to secure the Broncos a win either. Holani had 67 more yards than the second-leading rusher, Hank Bachmeier, and was unable to hold down the rushing offense all on his own.
