    In college, he could squat 557 and bench press 360. I assume he could have done more in his NFL career. He also had a 40 inch vertical.

    What made Barry so great was his amazing leg strength. I read somewhere what he squatted and it was some freakish amount, something like over 500# I believe. Its been awhile so I may be wrong, but what struck me was his strength below his waist.
