Quinn Ewers' girlfriend, Mady Barnes, has been supporting him from the sidelines for over two years.

The former star player for the University of Texas at Austin signed with the Miami Dolphins during the 2025 NFL Draft. Barnes celebrated her beau's accomplishment on Instagram, writing that she was "so incredibly proud and overjoyed" for the quarterback.

"Quinn, you are so deserving of this and a whole lot more!" she captioned the April 2025 post. "You’re the most driven, dedicated, and genuine man both on and off the field. I’m so excited for this journey and to watch you live out your dreams. GO DOLPHINS!!🐬🧡."

Prior to his NFL status, Ewers and Barnes attended rival schools. She's been a student at the University of Oklahoma since 2022, according to her LinkedIn profile, and is expected to graduate in December 2025. The universities' longstanding competition — known as the Red River Rivalry — dates back to 1900, according to Sports Illustrated, with the teams playing nearly every year.

Over the course of their relationship, Ewers and Barnes haven't shared many details about their connection, including when they started dating. The Texas natives took their relationship public in February 2023 when Barnes posted several photos on Instagram of them enjoying a night out in Austin.

More recently, during a September 2024 appearance on Sundae Conversation, the college football quarterback confirmed that his girlfriend attended the University of Oklahoma, stopping short of revealing more information.

While Ewers remained tight-lipped on the show, he and Barnes have featured each other on their respective social media pages, posting snaps of them at school games and other activities.

While Ewers was a Texas Longhorn quarterback, Barnes cheered him on from a rival school, which she is set to graduate from in December 2025, according to her LinkedIn.

Barnes started attending the University of Oklahoma, a longtime rival of UT Austin that dates back well over a century, in 2022. At the university, she became a member of the Chi Omega sorority after rushing in August 2022, per her Instagram.

In addition, Barnes became a part of the American Marketing Association and was also selected as a Kendra Scott Gem and Campus Ambassador at her college for the 2023-24 school year. "I am looking forward to all the amazing experiences and connections this opportunity brings me!" she wrote on LinkedIn at the time.
