Brentis Jarryn Schaeffer (born January 25, 1986 in Deerfield Beach, Florida) is a former American football quarterback. He last played quarterback at the University of Mississippi. He transferred from the College of the Sequoias to Ole Miss prior to the 2006 season. He was selected as one of the nation's top-five impact junior college transfers by Lindy's magazine, as well as “Newcomer of the Year” in the SEC. Schaeffer started his college career at the University of Tennessee, where he became the first true freshman QB to start a season opener for an SEC team since Georgia's John Rauch in 1945. However, Schaeffer was dismissed from the Volunteers squad and forced to withdraw from the university after several on-campus incidents, the most notable being him captured on a security camera at the North Carrick dormitory assaulting another student with a weapon.
Schaeffer is a cousin of former Iowa Hawkeye quarterback and Heisman Trophy runner-up Brad Banks.
