Quiz-Which FL HS Has Produced the Top QB's?

[OldSchoolLion]

Less than 25 FL hs qb's have accomplished the following:

• Threw for over 75 career TD's
• Threw for over 6900 career passing yards
• Lead their respective teams to at least one state semifinal game

Amazingly, one high school has produced three of these qb's, something no other school can claim.

Which high school is it? 

Hint: These 3 qb's all played between 1995-2010.

Nice try.  Randy Hardin of Bolles would make that list.

The school with 3 is further south

Good try.  Jacory Harris is one of only a handful of south Florida qb's on the list.  But not even the great Teddy Bridgewater has the gaudy stats mentioned above.  Try further north.

The Jacksonville area has produced some very good qb's, but you need to look further south, but north of Broward County.  Hmm, which metro areas meet that description?

Tampa Jefferson 

Tampa Jefferson it is!  Reche Caldwell played for Jefferson in the mid 90’s.  He threw for over 6900 career passing yards and 77 career TD’s.  In 1996, he led the Dragons to the Class 5A state semifinal game, where they lost to St Thomas Aquinas.  He earned first team all-state and high school All-American honors.  He was also selected as the Florida Class 5A Player of the Year.  After high school, he played WR at University of Florida and played 7 seasons in the NFL.

Stephen Garcia threw for over 8000 career passing yards and 83 career TD’s. As a sophomore in 2004, he led the Dragons to the Class 3A state title game, where they lost to Bolles.  He went on to play QB at University of South Carolina, where he had a rocky career.  He never made it to the NFL.

Quentin Williams threw for over 10,000 career passing yards and 109 career TD’s.  He is one of the most productive QB’s ever to play hs football in Florida.  In 2009, he led the dragons to the Class 3A state semifinal, where they lost to Pensacola.  In 2010, he led the Dragons to the Class 3A state title in a win over Miami Norland.  Williams set state passing records that year, breaking the single-season record for passing touchdowns (56) and yardage (4,451), while also setting a record for career touchdown passes (109) and breaking Tim Tebow’s career passing yardage record with 10,384.  He was voted Florida Mr. Football and the Class 3A Player of the Year.  He went on to play QB at Bethune-Cookman.  Check out the video of Quentin (#3) and the Dragons playing against Norland.

Good job Smashmouth!  Looking at the list of most productive qb's from Florida, it is pretty clear that central Florida produces the most.

No doubt Plant has had some good ones.  The Tampa area, in general, has been a hotbed for FL qb's over the years.
