MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — A name that you will become familiar with throughout the season will be Akheem Mesidor. Mesidor is a true freshman, and immediately making a name for himself on the gridiron.
Mesidor, an Ottawa, Ontario native, has played in the first three games of the season. He earned his first career start last Saturday against Baylor. In that game, Mesidor recorded four total tackles and one sack. West Virginia head football coach Neal Brown was impressed with how Mesidor played.
“His effort was off the chart,” says Brown during his Tuesday press conference.
