Georgia football loses out on four-star edge rusher recruit

The Georgia Bulldogs lost out on a major edge rusher recruit. Four-star edge Ebenezer Ewetade announced he’s committing to play for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

Ewetade is a four-star edge rusher from the class of 2026. The 6-foot-4, 221-pound edge plays high school football and track and field for South Garner High School in Garner, North Carolina.

Georgia offered Ewetade on Jan. 10, 2025, and the Bulldogs made his list of top five schools, along with Florida State, Alabama, NC State, and Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish won Ewetade’s commitment, the second time Georgia has lost out on a recruit recently to their 2025 Sugar Bowl opponent. The talented edge will still visit UGA on June 6, 2025.

Ewetade’s commitment gives Notre Dame the 13th best recruiting class in the country. Meanwhile, Georgia ranks just 26th, nine spots below where the Bulldogs were when Ewetade announced his top five schools. Four-star cornerback Jontavius Wyman flipped from the Bulldogs to the Miami Hurricanes in UGA’s most recent recruiting news.

Ewetade is the 16th ranked edge and 152nd ranked player in the class of 2026. He is also the 10th best prospect from North Carolina.
