Budda Baker

Budda is amazing , one of the top 5 DBs we have had but what is scary is Rapp as a true freshman might already be just as good.

Malloy was better than any of the 91 safeties rather easily. And I love Pahukoa and Smith.

But Budda is now the greatest UW safety of all time.

I'm treasurer of Coker's Rapp fan club, but that's crazy talk.

I will say that Rapp is much more physical than I remember Buttah being as a frosh.

Rapp is great, but Budda does some things Rapp will never be able to do. Budda will be the toughest player to replace next year.

As true freshman go, Rapp has probably been better than Budda, but it's a tough comparison. Rapp is on a better team with better talent around him. Both (as expected) greatly improved as the season went on.

They are both great.

Just went back and watched Rapp's pick 6.

Budda goes from D to O immediately and throws a hell of a block to clear the way to the end zone.

Fucking LOVE our D!!!

Death Row knows if they don't get score inside the redzone babushka will throw 3 fades and settle for a fg.

Picking a nit here but Budda hasn't really played much safety this year.

Playing cover on the slot man 90% of the time this year. Will be interesting
to see if he plays as a slot corner in the pros or as a Earl Thomas guy.
He has been amazing since Kwitkowski moved him up towards the LOS.

Budda decommitting from Oregon after one visit from Petersen made me realize Petersen was the real fucking deal and we were in for a turn around.

since we all know you're gone after this season, thank you. Seriously. you could have followed the path of every other big time in state recruit at the time and left, but you didn't.

You'll be remembered for a long time

Does Budda read this board? That's what I thought.

Budda starts over Lawyer on this team. If you want to argue Lawyer starts over JoJo or Rapp I agree, but Budda is locked into the lineup for this team before Lawyer. I think the reverse is true in the mid 90's, but Budda's edge is coverage is a lot more important now.

I said at S, Budda starts at nickel, and play his best at that position.

You knew all along but you couldn't say anything?
