Jared Barber carried out the State Flag in WVU's pregame entrance Saturday night. Here's what he had to say about it:
"jbarber_33I'm not a West Virginia native, but just like every other player who steps on Mountaineer field we become one of their own. I took great pride in carrying out our state flag Saturday night, I not only carried it out for our team but also for the 1.8 million amazing people in this great state. Carrying it out represented all of the tough, blue collar, hard working people of this state. We may not be the biggest or most powerful state but we will stand up and fight tooth and nail for what we want and believe in. I couldn't have chosen a better TEAM , University, and state to call home. It truly was my greatest moment of being a mountaineer!"
