CLEMSON — Ben Boulware is one of the most revered players of the Dabo Swinney era.
Boulware anchored the middle of the Tigers’ defense during its run to the national title game in 2015, as well as when they won it all in 2016, the year he won the Jack Lambert Award as the nation’s top linebacker. His fiery speech after that national championship win will never be forgotten by most.
As good as he was, what many remember the most is the intensity he brought to the field. As a first-year linebackers coach at his alma mater, Boulware is bringing that same mentality to his room, and his players, including sophomore Sammy Brown, are embracing that mindset with open arms.
