Budmayr proves worth in Columbus

Top Performer

 

Jon Budmayr (6-1, 200), Quarterback

(Woodstock, Ill./Marian Central Catholic)

We thought the ESPN 150 Watch List quarterback resembled a high school version of Missouri QB Chase Daniel on film, and his play in Columbus backed it up. The crafty gunslinger lacks prototypical size (he is probably closer to 6-feet) and may not be in the same category as Daniel in terms of athleticism, but his poise, moxie and ability to distribute the ball quickly and accurately all over the field Friday are very similar.

 

He lacks an over-the-top release but his delivery was quick, consistent and the ball jumped off his hand all day with good RPMs. We thought he showed good arm strength on film and backed it up leading receivers downfield with good air under his deep ball. Budmayr impressed us strictly as a passer versus an imaginary rush; the exciting part is his ability to create and improvise with his feet are equally impressive.

 

He could be sliding under the national radar due to his marginal height, but we feel it can easily be masked in a spread system at the next level. Budmayr showed Friday he deserves mention in the same breath as some of the top dual-threat QBs in this class.

a little shorter than most coaches like to see at qb

yeah but don't forget for what...40 years the qb with the most td passes in a season was what...5 4?

[Danimal]

That is shade short but he could always grow an inch or two still. He was kicking serious ass before he got hurt last season and appears to have enough running-ability to mix-in some spread-option. He'd be a solid get.

 

From what I understand he has had quite a bit of contact with Wiscy but I think we have a fair shot at him.

i'm more worried about zook

[Street Novelist]

I don't see how 6'1'' is short. people should be less concerned with logistics and more with how he plays on the field.

Ganz is 6'1 and even the great Zac Lee and Kody Spano are only 6'2. Witt and Davis are both listed as 6'4, but remember that guys like Chase Daniel, Todd Reesing, Colt McCoy and Graham Harrell are/were all under 6'2.

[Hunter94]

oh i agree, it just seems that a lot ocoaches want a guy 6'2" or taller, at least that seems to be the trend.........easier to look down field and throw over defensive linemen.

Committed to Wisconsin.

[Hunter94]

done, moving on now, next?

[Danimal]

Crap

[Alex 4.0]

as expected. Good luck, unless you are playing against the Huskers. Give me Green or Scheelhaase!

Thought we might have had a chance, but I guess that 2009 road trip to Hawaii was too enticing.

 

As far as I can tell Ohio State drops off of their schedule in his Junior or Senior year, so he might actually have a shot at at conference title though Rich Rod will probably have Michigan back up and Illinois will be no treat.

 

Oh well, so can we get Scheelhaase or Mossakowski?
