As a redshirt freshman he started every game, and was a first-team Freshman All-American. As a sophomore in 2003, he started all 14 games. He led the team with 1008 snaps and credited with 105 key blocks, including 82 knockdowns. Then he moved to LT in 2005. He played every offensive snap in nine of the 13 contests, for an offense that averaged 374.1 yards per game. By not allowing a sack all season, he finished his career with 22 straight games of no sacks allowed. He was credited with 104 key blocks/knockdowns.
His 52 career starts from 2002-05 rank second in NCAA Division I history. He earned All-Southeastern Conference first-team honors in each of his last two seasons, including a consensus nod as a senior.
I mean, hell, *I* could "coach up" a guy like this, and I haven't sniffed a football field in almost 20 years!
Boling was a first team PFW All American going into the draft, and considered a top prospect at guard.
That's why Barrett Jones is the best OL in the NFL...or that means nothing when you get to the NFL.
If Whitworth had the pure talent you claim he does, he would have gone top 5 in the draft.
