Barry Wagner (born November 11, 1967) is an World Indoor Football League wide receiver/defensive back with the Daytona Beach Thunder. He also played in the AFL for the Orlando Predators and San Jose SaberCats. Wagner is the all-time AFL all-purpose yardage leader.
During his tenure with the Orlando Predators, Wagner was a key component in the famous "Miracle Minute", in which he scored two touchdowns, two two-point conversions, recovered an onside kick, and made a key defensive stop, all in the final minute of a 1992 game against the Detroit Drive.
On Wednesday, March 28, after getting cut from the Tampa Bay Storm's practice squad, he joined the Daytona Beach Thunder of the WIFL.
While attending Alabama A&M University, Wagner starred in football and broke many school records held by former Pittsburgh Steeler John Stallworth. As a senior, he caught 112 passes for 1,817 yards (16.22 yards per rec. avg.), won Associated Press and Football News Division II All-America honors, was the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Player of the Year, and played in the 1989 Senior Bowl. In one game against Clark Atlanta University, he caught 23 passes, setting two school single game records with 370 receiving yards and 5 receiving touchdowns.
