Rush Through the Roster: #36 Sam Barrington

#36 - Sam Barrington - 6-1 230-pounds - LB - Senior - Jacksonville, FL (Terry Parker HS)

2011 stats:  Barrington started all 12 games last year at the SAM linebacker position.  He totaled 72 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, 1 interception, 2 PBU, and forced 2 fumbles.

Position on the depth chart: Barrington is the starting SAM linebacker for the second straight season coming out of the spring.

2012 projection: Barrington is one of the most experienced leaders on the USF defense and is a force in the middle of the field.  Barrington helps anchor a great front 7 that will be the strength of the defense all season long.  Look for him to have another big season at the SAM position.  He is a great tackler, getting behind the line of scrimmage and is a natural in dropping back for passing situations as well, utilizing his great speed.
