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.

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.

      In a single word, "no." In a lot more words, see the following: (From 2023-24 FHSAA Handbook) 36.2 GENERAL DEFINITIONS 36.2.1 Athletic Recruiting. “Athletic recruiting” is any effort by a school employee, athletic department staff member or representative of a school’s athletic interests to pressure, urge or entice a student to attend that school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.   and this . . . 36.2.2 Improper Contact. “Improper contact” is contact, either directly or indirectly, whether in person or through written or electronic communication, by a school employee, athletic department staff member, representative of the school’s athletic interests or third parties, such as an independent person, business or organization, with a student or any member of the student’s family, in an effort to pressure, urge or entice the student to attend a different school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.  See Policy 37.    In fact, if the kid contacts the coach at another school, the coach is not supposed to communicate with the kid other than to refer the kid to the person at the school responsible for admissions.    Best I can tell, there is no exception for being able to reach out to a kid who plays a sport that is not offered by the school that the kid currently attends.  Perhaps there should be . . . but then you'd really be opening Pandora's Box.

      So you are not allowed to talk to a kid who is not an active football player currently attending a school that doesn’t have a football team?

      1.  Ask around and get the kid's phone number. 2.  Call the kid.  3.  If that doesn't work, DM the kid.  4.  Once communications are established, try to convince the kid to come to your school.  There may be other ways, but I think this would be the easiest way to recruit a kid .

      NIL coming to Florida? FHSAA requests public feedback

      By Perspective · Posted

      So, after one very brief reading, it appears that the policy will be as follows:   kids, you can cut an NIL deal, but it can't have anything to do with the school you're at or any school that wants you to come there or anyone associated with any of those schools (i.e., boosters).
