Former blue-chip QB with Arkansas pedigree and Alabama State ties
Gary Brashears is a former Parade All-American quarterback who was ranked among the nation’s top QBs and signed with Arkansas before transferring to Tulsa, which hints at real arm talent and high-level potential. In Alabama State-related coverage, he’s remembered for throwing three touchdown passes in a 41-23 win over Tennessee-Chattanooga, a snapshot of an efficient, playmaking passer. His biggest differentiators are pedigree, size, and a proven ability to create scoring drives under pressure; the fit question is whether his upside and past flashes outweigh the uncertainty that comes with an older, winding college path.
