MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - To say Jared Barber had an interesting post-operative recovery from knee surgery is kind of like saying California has a little bit of a water problem.
Yes, Barber’s knee rehab was far from routine.
To backtrack, Barber was having his best season at West Virginia in 2013 when his right knee went one way and his body went another while trying to make a tackle in a game against Texas.
The result was a completely torn anterior cruciate ligament. And that was the good news.
The bad stuff happened once the surgery was completed.
