The Bodine Witch Hunt

[Bengal Dude]

Coaches coming to the defense of their players is nothing new, but Paul definitely came off in a negative light on this one. Bodine had a rough rookie year, so it was reasonable to see some improvement in his second year. Instead, we saw no improvement. I think back to Joe Goodberry's Twitter feed from last year. So many times you'd see more negative clips of Bodine than positive. People accused him of being biased. He posted all the positives he could, but the negatives outnumbered the positives.

Can Bodine improve? Absolutely. However, we've seen practically nothing from him to make us think he's our long term starter.
