If I got the highlights correctly he left Wildwood, went to Sage, went back to Wildwood, then vanished. I'm going out on a limb and assuming the welfare check on Belt St was his address. It's a really big geographic zone with a lot of areas that would need ground searches.

This runs uncomfortably close to my kids on campus apartment.

It occurs to me that if he left Wildwood on foot for Belt, he could have intended to walk across campus as it would have been the shortest path home.

Here's had more than one order of protection granted against him going back to 2012, the most recent one being last year. Don't know if any involved the women he argued with referenced in the MSM article. Person Name or Business Name Search

Jonesboro police outline highlights of missing man investigation
Police are hoping the release of new information regarding a missing Jonesboro man will lead to him being located.
On their Facebook page, the Jonesboro Police Department outlined the highlights in the investigation of Brandon Blancett, 34, who was seen walking away from a home on Wildwood Point on Oct. 10, 2021, and has not been seen or heard from since.
The highlights that the JPD outlined in their post span from Oct. 10 to Dec. 8.
Once enough evidence was collected in October, there was an attempt on Nov. 1 to create a silver alert for Blancett, but it was denied by the Arkansas State Police due to “the incident’s circumstances”.
On Nov. 1, JPD received a tip that Blancett was at John 3:16 Ministries, but it was found that the tip was untrue. Another tip on Nov. 8 said Blancett was possibly spotted in Bono, but it could not be determined if the tip was legitimate.

It appears there is a scheduled search for March
The girlfriend is suspicious imo.. I went to school with her and I follow the group page.. 2-3 DIFFERENT accounts of what happened the night he went missing have been shared. When called out on it they block people questioning it and say they are just posting what she has told them.
She also went to a concert in November, I wouldn't do that if my significant other was missing. I would be searching nonstop.. She shared his post 3x when he first went missing and has done nothing since to bring awareness to his case.
Searches were also postponed for hunting season. Idk if this is normal or not but a person should be prioritized over deer season.
The protection order last year was filed by Tayler his girlfriend at the time he disappeared. They have dated since 2018-2019.

It appears that admin has responded to posts and specific questions in the comments under posts as recently as today. Insightful IMO.
Well Idk if it would be safe to have a lot of people traipsing through the woods during hunting season, someone could wind up getting shot
