In 1999 Roy Shivers, the former Director of Player Personnel for the Calgary Stampeders, assumed the duties of general manager of the Roughriders. Roy Shivers (born July 5, 1941 in Hally Arkansas) was the General Manager of the Saskatchewan Shivers hired Barrett as the head coach despite the latter's limited coaching experience. The Roughriders made football history by being the first professional team with a black general manager and head coach. The team improved during Barrett's first four seasons, largely because Shivers--an astute appraiser of football talent with many connections to U. S. college teams--recruited and signed better players. In 2003 the team ended with an 11-7 record, and lost a close Western final playoff game to the Edmonton Eskimos. The Edmonton Eskimos are a Canadian Football League team based in Edmonton Alberta. The team seemed on the verge of being championship calibre.

By 2006, after three consecutive . 500 seasons--capped by a humiliating 2006 Western final loss to the B. C. Lions by a score of 45-18--an increasing number of fans began to question the leadership provided by Shivers and Barrett, and Shivers eventually was dismissed by the team's Board of Directors.

In the weeks leading to his ultimate departure, Barrett was unusually--and perhaps unwisely--expressive to the media about his views on the firing of Shivers. Reports indicate that Tillman had offered Barrett a one-year contract to continue as head coach, but either Barrett rejected the offer or Tillman withdrew it.

On February 7, 2007 TSN reported that Barrett turned down an offer from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, as an offensive co-ordinator, to go to the University of Buffalo, where he will become the quarterbacks coach.
