Ran into Ben Boulware at a tailgate Saturday


Nov 5, 2018, 1:19 PM

Man, I miss that guy. He is just a real humble kid. So much heart. I told him how much I loved his speech in Tampa, and asked if he interacted much with this year's team. He said he didn't want to be a distraction, so he pretty much keeps his distance, even though he still has former teammates on the roster. He had trimmed his beard a little and lost a few lbs; believe it or not, several people around didn't recognize him immediately.

Still baffles me that he isn't playing pro ball - as good as he was at Clemson!

Yeah, baffles me too. But as I understand it, he is just a step slow for the pros. He was an absolute lion for us.

Agree, but he was always around the ball, just not great in coverage. To me his future is in coaching, but I wonder if he is giving any thought to one of the new leagues in development.

Said he owns a gym...go figure

Sounded like his playing days were behind him

I wondered if he was thinking about that new league starting up soon. Don’t recall the name (but it’s not the new XFL). Rick Neuhesiel will be coaching one of the teams.

He is too short and not quite quick enough. Huge heart, but unfortunately not built for the league.

He’s running a gym now in Anderson and claims that he was no longer having fun playing football when he got his pro shot. Said in a podcast with Larry Williams he was happy the 49ers cut him because he was hating every aspect of pro life

Called Clemson Dubcast

Probably poor choice of words..."ran into"


Nov 5, 2018, 1:32 PM

Glad I didn't "run into" him...I approached him very carefully

I saw him as I was walking to the stadium at the NCST game. He was in his flatbed beat to sheet F350 and was heading home to go watch it. Grabbed a pic, shook his hand, and continued on.

I still miss him. Post game is not nearly as interesting without him.

I want to tell you that my 8 year old nephew Jackson loves you! Like me, he proudly dons his orange #10 jersey for every single game, it’s our good luck charm. I've never had a chance to meet you but just know, there is a Clemson family in Columbia that is proud to be a part of that family with awesome men and leaders like you! Thanks for your heart, passion and love for Clemson, we are better for it!
