Career

Barker led the Crimson Tide to a 35–2–1 record as their starting quarterback, which was the NCAA record at the time for most victories by a collegiate quarterback. The official NCAA record book, however, shows a 27–11 record owing to subsequent forfeiture of games during the 1993 season.
The Green Bay Packers selected Barker in the fifth round of the 1995 NFL Draft, but he did not make the club. Barker later played with the New England Patriots and the Carolina Panthers, although he never appeared in a regular-season game. He was signed by the Toronto Argonauts in 1998, taking him to the Canadian Football League. Barker departed the Argonauts after three seasons to join the XFL’s Birmingham Thunderbolts.
Barker was a fan favorite of the Bolts’ (usually modest) audiences and played numerous games in the middle of the season before sustaining a career-ending concussion late in the season. In contrast to his collegiate success, he oversaw the start of a seven-game losing run in the XFL. Barker is presently an ESPN Radio commentator and was formerly an on-air broadcaster for WJOX in Birmingham. Until 2018, he and Al Del Greco, a former Auburn placekicker, co-hosted the Opening Drive show on WJOX with Tony Kurre.
