Barclay rebuilt a broken rushing attack with the help of Devon Johnson in 2014, but after two seasons in Huntington, he will join the Herd's bitter rival Western Kentucky Hilltoppers as an assistant under head coach Jeff Brohm.
Over the past two seasons of Marshall football, the Herd has gone from a potent aerial attacking squad to one with a well-balanced offense, and running back's coach Chris Barclay is largely to thank for the resurgence of a significant rushing attack.
While a great addition to the Herd coaching staff, it was announced today that Barclay has accepted a job as an offensive assistant with Western Kentucky.
