His dad Jimmy Barry Muprhy (or JBM as he is known) is one of the icons of Irish Sport.
One of the very few to win All Irelands in both codes.
An absolute gent to boot.
Brian Barry was a jobbing defensive footballer of sorts around the third tier and his coaching career which I think started in his early 30s or so looks solid if not spectacular.
Looks an OK appointment but a big ask with what's going on around us.
We need someone with a defensive plan to implement and he may be worth a shot.
Here's hoping.
