Gamecock Club’s Barber will be Liberty’s AD

Former Gamecock Club director Jeff Barber is changing jobs again — and this time he is changing schools.

Barber has accepted an offer to become Liberty University’s athletics director, the school announced Sunday night. The 47-year-old Barber starts Feb. 13 at the Lexington, Va., school that the Rev. Jerry Falwell founded in 1971.

“I’ve wanted to be an AD, and there are not a whole lot of these positions available,” Barber said. “I really feel I have a chance to go there and make a difference in their program.”

Barber said Liberty is “making a huge commitment to athletics.” The Flames recently hired Virginia assistant Danny Rocco as its football coach. Work has started on a $7.5 million football building, and the Division I-AA football program is considering moving to I-A.
