That's really tough. I wouldn't put him there yet but I'd be surprised if, after this season, most of us don't put him right there.
Just going back to Trufant and trying to rank them is almost impossible for me. Let's see how stupid this looks:
1. Syd Jones
2. TruFant
3. Peters
4. Murphy
5. Kevin King
6. Keith Taylor
7. Jordan Miller
8. Greg Ducre
Something like that. The first four are interchangeable to me but I tend to favor Jones who was just such a technician.

No.
It’s all subjective. Peters was the actual best player. Jones and King next. It’s splitting hairs, but I thought King was better.
King allowed the lowest completion percentage of anyone in the PAC 12 in 2015. On 2016, I remembered Jones giving up more completions than King.
Murphy over Trufant. Trufant was really good in 2012. Nothing special his first three years.
So I missed this originally but was bored at work and listened to the LPT practice wrap up thing. According to them, Donovan was asked about the 4-man RB rotation from last year and said this year he wants to get away from that and have a featured back. They also noted that Cam Davis "seems to be running with the 1s" whenever they do full team stuff.
Obviously consider the source but both of those revelations would be most welcome

I think Trufant gets unjustly dismissed. He was CB1 when both him and Peters were on the roster and was easily better when he left. Peters probably was better after, though it's arguable, but was an asshole and did nothing but shit on UW and oiss away his last season. Fuck him.

Totally subjective nonsense, but I remember hearing Trufant's name the least his senior year compared to any of our other CBs this last decade. I'll always associate him as the face of the transition of our program from the Charmin-soft defenses of 2011 and prior into the new defense-first identity we've had ever since. God bless Tru.
