rangy, ball-hawking Terps DB with all-ACC upside
In the 2008 season, Kevin Barnes was Maryland’s lone returning starter in the secondary and led the Terps with four interceptions while adding nine pass breakups, giving him a clear playmaking profile as a long, experienced corner who could disrupt throws and finish at the catch point. Maryland’s own preseason notes described him as the No. 1 corner and an All-ACC candidate, and local coverage highlighted his most experienced-backfield role and big-hit reputation. He looks like a fit for a team wanting length, instincts, and swagger on the back end.
