It’s clear Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs have a true playmaker on the way in four-star tight end Ethan Barbour‍.

After a quiet week one win over the mighty Buford Wolves, Barbour showed his dominance in week two against one of the top programs in Florida. 

That would be American Heritage. Barbour and the Milton Eagles went down to South Florida for a big week two matchup and left the Sunshine State with an impressive 37-28 victory. A big reason why was because of the play of Georgia commitment Ethan Barbour, a pass-catching machine who made a statement on Friday night with six catches for 172 yards and two total touchdowns.

According to FanDuel, the Atlanta Falcons have -145 odds to win the NFC South upcoming season.


His long catch and run late in the game helped secure Milton’s victory and showed everyone why he’s one of the very best tight end prospects across the country for the 2025 class.

At 6-foot-3 235-pounds, Barbour brings plenty of speed for his size and knows how to pick up big yards after the catch. He’s also one of the more polished route-runners that Todd Hartley has signed in recent years. That’s a big statement, but it’s true. He’s a natural athlete with excellent hands, and his playmaking ability was on full display this weekend.

He can line up at quarterback in the wildcat formation, where he scored a rushing touchdown on Friday night, tight end, fullback, or even play out wide as a wide receiver. He’s a weapon who can play all over the place, and he’ll likely continue to make plays all over the field throughout the 2024 season.

Barbour is currently ranked as the No. 11 TE prospect and the No. 190 overall prospect in the 2025 class. He is joined by 5-star Elyiss Williams‍ on the commit list, giving the Dawgs two more dynamic tight ends for the future.
