Johnny White ready for NFL audition

Posted Feb 24, 2011
It has come down to this for UNC running back Johnny White — a three-day audition that could decide his future as a football player. The former Asheville High star is heading to the NFL Combine in Indianapolis this weekend, hoping to convince scouts, coaches and general managers that his varied skills as a runner, receiver and special-teams player are a good fit for one of the league's 32 teams.
