Boise State junior running back Jeremy McNichols has decided to enter the NFL Draft following BSU’s appearance in Tuesday’s Cactus Bowl against Baylor in Phoenix.

Boise State football coach Bryan Harsin says Broncos running back Jeremy McNichols has been quiet about a potential decision to declare for the NFL draft. Reports this week say McNichols will forego his senior year with BSU to head to the pros. McNichols has until January 18 to declare.

Boise State head coach Bryan Harsin says his team hopes to create the direction for next season as the Broncos prepare to face Baylor in the Cactus Bowl on December 27.

Boise State running back Jeremy McNichols was named one of 10 semifinalists for the Doak Walker Award, which goes to the nation’s premiere running back on the field, in the classroom, and in the community. McNichols was one of 84 original nominees for the award, which will be handed out in February.
