Maryland football freshman linebacker Jaishawn Barham has been one of the best true freshmen in the country this year, and this weekend he put it on full display.
In a crushing 31-29 loss to Purdue, Barham had two sacks, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery and five total tackles. The stellar performance earned him the Big Ten Co-Freshman of the Week award, the conference announced on Monday.
The four-star freshman out of District Heights, Maryland was the highest-rated recruit the Terps brought in last year. He has showcased his ability right away, with 34 total tackles, 4.
