William Gaines William Gaines William Gaines 5'11" | 215 lbs | LB Searcy | 2027 State AR is a 5’11, 215 pound Class of 2027 linebacker from Searcy High School. He runs a 4.8. 40 yard dash. His strengths are tackling, leadership and forcing fumbles. William has a drive and determination to never settle. I feel like William has the talent and determination to play College Football.

William Gaines William Gaines William Gaines 5'11" | 215 lbs | LB Searcy | 2027 State AR is going to garner more attention this fall. He recently earned an offer from Lyon. The linebacker plays with heart, showcasing his high motor throughout the whistle. Gaines is assignment sound and flies to the football with good foot quickness. He also has offers from Hendrix and Arkansas Baptist.
