After a successful stint at ABAC, earning his associate degree and being named the team's MVP, Barney was awarded a scholarship to Austin Peay State University. Barney played two seasons for the Governors and was named to the Ohio Valley All-Conference team, All-Academic team and was named team MVP as a senior.
