Before his stop in Louisiana, Barber spent three years (2019-2021) at the University of Miami where he was an assistant strength and conditioning coach for football. During his stay, the Hurricane football team was bowl eligible all three years. The 2019 squad participated in the Independence Bowl while the 2020 team played in the Cheez-It Bowl.
