Texas State's Brad Jackson ranked as the top G6 quarterback by The Athletic

Texas State quarterback Brad Jackson was ranked as the top G6 quarterback by The Athletic, placing him 27th overall among 138 projected FBS starting quarterbacks for next season. The ranking highlights Jackson, a redshirt sophomore with the Bobcats, as a standout dual-threat passer and runner whose rushing ability is portrayed as particularly rare at the G6 level. The Athletic points to his fit in Texas State’s pro-style quarterback scheme under coach G.J. Kinne, along with support from receivers Beau Sparks and Chris Dawn Jr. The article also notes that Jackson could have transferred to a Power Four program but instead remains with Texas State as it prepares for its inaugural Pac-12 season. It suggests that if he repeats his 2025 numbers, Texas State could be in contention for the College Football Playoff.
