The 6-foot-4, 180-pound senior previously signed with Ball State in November 2025, but reopened his recruitment in April after the program parted ways with former coach Michael Lewis in the spring.
Barrett nearly averaged a double-double as a senior playing wing for the Falcons, recording 17.3 points and 9.7 rebounds while serving as Millwood's primary defensive anchor. He was named to The Oklahoman's 2026 Super 5 second team and Little All-City first team.
