Front Page Story: Boulware commits


Mar 28, 2012, 10:09 PM

 
Boulware commits

Ben Boulware, a three-star prospect who had recently narrowed his choices down to Clemson and Georgia, became the fifth commitment for the 2013 class when he gave Swinney his verbal Wednesday night. Full Story »

the early 2000's. John Leake I think was his name.

I wish all our linebackers tackled like he does. He stays low, wraps up, drives through the ball carrier. I didn't once see him make contact and go backwards. He was driving people backwards even when they had the momentum, his pad level is incredible. Old school and I love it. He honestly reminds me of linebackers that Oklahoma has had in the past and I am glad Venables was able to get on board and get this kid. I can't come up with any reason Steele didn't offer him.

Yeah Steele like linebackers that their first step is backward. Don't know about Venables yet, but he can't be as bad a linebacker coach at Steele was. If he would have simply coached up his position-LB, he would have had a good defense.

I can see this guy making the kind of hits like the one you feature in your posts of David Dunham laying the wood to Matt Ryan. Straight up brutal!

Mar 28, 2012, 10:43 PM

Love this pickup. Love his attitude. I really think Boulware will come in, work out and eventually turn into a major headhunter for our defense. He's got the commitment needed to do the job.

He definitely understands how to...


Mar 29, 2012, 7:39 AM

read the QB and RB which is crucial to making plays at the LOS...I also like his ability (what I saw in the videos) to make open field tackles. Oh yeah, and he drives THROUGH on the tackles

Re: Front Page Story: Boulware commits


Mar 29, 2012, 8:09 AM

Reminds me of Larry Hefner, a great LB for the Tigers, and several others from Clemson and some I have seen from other schools. I can think of Ron Rogers and Keith Brookings from GT. ben Zambieze and Steve Kitchens from ugay who all were at the bottom of every pile. So was Hefner - a real beast who would lay the wood to any and everybody. He has that business look about him. I like it!

Man, I'm feeling really sarcastic today. Maybe I should try the lunge.

Re: Yeah! Because other players' broken tackles always make it


Mar 29, 2012, 9:34 AM

No they don't but I DO see when others highlights show them shoulder tackling and not wrapping up and have to make a second attempt or only get the hold up stop until another comes along. All I meant is that he seems to wrap up and be sure of the tackle. If there is someone who breaks free from that, I hope we're recruiting him. Cheer up bro.

I just felt like being a SA.....sorry. I really DO like

Re: Front Page Story: Boulware commits


Mar 29, 2012, 9:15 AM

I love the way he tackles the ball carrier and anything or anyone that gets in the way. Highlight where he takes out the ref in addition to the ball carrier is classic. Now if the coaches can train him to include Ron Cherry in his tackles at Clemson, he will be a 5 star in my book!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Awesome!! I'm happy for you, Ben. Could use some


Mar 29, 2012, 9:20 AM

"old school" in this defense. Could use a fellow Hanna grad as well! Get ready to work, son!

Outright speed seems to be the one thing he needs


Mar 29, 2012, 12:22 PM

other than that I think he'll be a good player for us. I love the aggression and head hunter mentality. He looks like BJ Goodson did when we got him last year.

Quick off the ball ... squares up on the ball carrier and drives him back. This kid is old school; he's fundamentally sound.

Re: Front Page Story: Boulware commits


Apr 1, 2012, 2:00 AM

He may not be a trackstar but Clemson recruited him to be a LB anyways. Hes a hammer who uses his hands well to get off blocks keeps square and drives through the ball carrier. Hes one heck of an addition im excited about the future at LB for Clemson. Anthony, Townsend, Boulware, Steward(if he gets healthy), and Goodson to name a few. Plus that other recruit the 6'5 lb/s from florida. I like what venables recruits harding hammers.

It's hard to break a tackle when you're wrapped up and being violently throttled backwards ending up on your A_S_S by a 6'1 230lbs LB named BEN!!!!! Go Tigers!!!!!
