Timeline
Harry Jerome “Jay” Barker (born July 20, 1972) is an American former professional football player who was a quarterback in the Canadian Football League (CFL).
Barker played college football at the University of Alabama, under head coach Gene Stallings.
In the final game of the 1992 season, Barker led the Crimson Tide to a national championship by defeating the #1 Miami Hurricanes, 34–13, in the 1993 Sugar Bowl.
However, the official NCAA record book reflects a 27–11 mark due to later forfeiture of games during the 1993 season.
He played college football for the Alabama Crimson Tide, earning third-team All-American honors in 1994.
After his playing career, he became a Birmingham radio personality.
Barker attended Hewitt-Trussville High School in Trussville, Alabama, where his football career began.
In the 1994 season, Barker won the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and finished fifth in the voting for the Heisman Trophy.
Barker led the Crimson Tide to a 35–2–1 record as their starting quarterback, which was the NCAA record for most wins for a college quarterback at that time.
Barker was drafted in the 1995 NFL Draft in the fifth round by the Green Bay Packers, but did not make the team.
Subsequently, Barker was on the roster of the New England Patriots and the Carolina Panthers, but never played in a regular season game.
From 1995 to 2007 he was married to Amy DiGiovanna.
The couple has four children.
In 1998, the Toronto Argonauts signed Barker, bringing him to the Canadian Football League.
After three seasons with the Argonauts, Barker left to join the Birmingham Thunderbolts in the XFL.
A fan favorite of the Bolts' (generally small) crowds, Barker was the team's second-string quarterback and played several games in the middle of the season before suffering a career-ending concussion late.
In contrast to his college career, his time in the XFL saw him oversee the beginning of a seven-game losing streak.
Barker is currently an analyst for ESPN Radio, and formerly an on-air personality for WJOX in Birmingham.
In 2008, Barker married American country musician Sara Evans.
They live in Mountain Brook, Alabama, a suburb of Birmingham with his four children and Evans' three children.
On January 15, 2022, Barker was arrested on domestic violence charges after he allegedly tried to hit Evans and another individual with his car.
The report also indicated that Barker and Evans are currently separated.
Evans filed for divorce in August 2021 citing "irreconcilable differences and inappropriate marital conduct”.
Both he and Al Del Greco, a former Auburn placekicker, hosted the Opening Drive program on WJOX, along with Tony Kurre until 2018.
