Boling retires

With Jonah Williams out for the season, Boling would have been vital to this O-line, if only for his supreme professionalism. To retire 10 days before camp starts strikes me as odd.

I should have asked Boling this:

Was there anything you didn’t like about the new O-line coach? Anything that caused you to wonder if playing for Jim Turner would be worth the effort? Turner is a former Marine, who coaches like one. His methods have been questioned in the past. He’s never questioned himself. Being profanely berated might be OK for a rookie. For a guy in his 9th year?          


Boling was also quoted as saying that if it were just him, a young guy with no family, he'd be on the field.  I'd look more at pressure from the wife, than "fear of a hard core coach", if I were you.  Boling has already made millions, likely has invested well and not squandered his money.  she likely "allowed" Clint to believe that the decision was all his, while subtly pulling on the heart strings about long term health and being with the family.

Either way, I don't blame Clint for his decision.  I don't blame any man who has already earned enough to live and retire on, by the age of 30, for calling it quits due to health and family concerns.  However, there ain't no way in hell that anyone is going to convince me that Clint Boling took the easy way out, just to avoid a tough coach.  He's way too much of a proud and fierce competitor to ever be accused of chickening out.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
