    Just like we saw this year, I think the BUCK will be filled by a starter from another position, much like we saw Feeney take over the position after Kikaha left.

    I think Victor or Bierria could transition over to the BUCK position next season given how well they excelled at LB this year and with the progress shown by BBK.

    The BUCK position requires the most athletic and talented player on the defense since it is required to do everything. And since the BUCK is involved in everything, many of these defensive schemes are designed around it. So like Kawasaki did in his first year and in his second, I can see one of our LBs transitioning over to BUCK rather than handing it over to a freshman or non-starter.

    I agree, I see victor putting 10 more pounds of muscle on and being moved to buck this off season

    Yes on Rapp. Thumper safety, good speed. I would like to see Joyner moved to safety. 10.6 100 and great hitter. He will be great at corner to though.

    Joyner could be a curtis williams at safety. Same size, both great high school running backs. I see joyner as a jabril peppers. Either db positions, tailback and return game. He's a great running back. Wellington as a thumper tailback, going both ways would make puppy smile too.

    Why the fuck would you move arguably our best defender from the most important position on defense? Fucking retarded statement. We finally have a legitimate ass kicker at middle backer and people want to move him.

    Victor is great in the middle and I don't see him moving to Buck. I don't think it's a crazy idea though. BBK is an ILB and the coaches could want him on the field with Victor and Bierria.

    You use the BUCK to put the most athletes on the field. Some snot nosed fucktard that has only played a few downs and isnt some bad mother fucker cant play that position. Victor is by far the best fit for that position on UWs roster and still allows for Victor, Bierria, BBK, and one of the younger LBs (Bartlett?) all on the field at the same time....

    I would actually be fine with transitioning to a more traditional 4-3 defense given UW's ample depth at DL and limited LB play
    LE: Dissly
    NT: Gaines
    DT: Qualls
    RE: Mathis

    WILL: Bartlett
    MIK: Victor
    SAM: Bierria

    Everyone here is popping off about moving our best LB into the buck must have forgotten that Feeney was just awarded defensive MVP and had a season that included 53 tackles, 3rd in solo tackles on the team (38), lead the team in TFL (15.5), and lead the team in sacks (7)

    If we are going to play the 3-4 Victor is the best Buck

    People have good arguments to move him, but it comes down to how you want your defense to look. I still believe you build it from the inside out. Plus, i want a guy like Victor leading the huddle, if your leader is intense, everyone else follows not to far behind... I think there would be a big difference with bbk calling the play. Or not either way it would be interesting...... Victor is a badass that we can all agree on
