New Banners Being Installed at Bronco Stadium

Boise State banners
Banners of four Boise State senior football players are being installed on the east side of Bronco Stadium.  Wide receiver Mitch Burroughs, cornerback Jerrell Gavins, running back D.J. Harper and cornerback Jamar Taylor are featured this year.


Burroughs hopes to be more of a factor this fall, having started seven games last season.  He caught 49 passes for 500 yards and one touhdown and led the Broncos and the Mountain West Conference and was ranked 8th in the nation in punt returns with a 13.3 average.  


Gavins was off to a great start  in the first three games of 2011 with three interceptions and 11 tackles before a season-ending injury.  His absence was a key reason why Boise State did not go undefeated.  


Taylor started nine games and posted 27 tackles and two interceptions, including one he returned a school record 100 yards for a touchdown against Arizona State in the Las Vegas Bowl.
