Adrian Cush (born 12 June 1970) is a former Gaelic footballer who played for the Donaghmore St Patrick's club and the Tyrone county team. He was part of the panel that played in Tyrone's second ever All-Ireland Final in 1995, and experienced success on the underage scene.

As his career took him to London,[1] he had to stutter his playing for Tyrone, despite being at the top of his game. His is considered one of unfulfilled careers of Tyrone GAA.[2]

Also known as Cushy the king. Part of the double act ‘the terrible twins’ alongside Peter the great Canavan
