While it was Evans who called to deliver the good news to Ajayi, it was actually Terps defensive line coach Jimmy Brumbaugh that visited the Peach State earlier this spring to watch Ajayi workout. Brumbaugh taped Ajayi’s workout and brought it back to College Park to be reviewed by the coaching staff, which eventually decided they’d seen enough to offer a scholarship.
