Bio

Set a national community college single-season passing record of 4,044 yards (with 36 touchdowns) in 1993, when he led the Comets to the national football championship with an 11-0 record and also broke the national career passing record with 7,480 yards (with 50 touchdowns). Was the J.C. Grid-Wire's All-American quarterback as a sophomore. During his freshman season of 1992, when the Comets went 10-1 and were ranked sixth nationally, and the 1993 season, when they were 11-0 and won the national community college championship, Luginbill led Palomar to a 21-1 two-year record. He went on to start at quarterback for Georgia Tech, was a quarterback and head coach in Arena Football and currently is a college football analyst and recruiting coverage coordinator for ESPN. Due to a conflict with his ESPN duties, he was unable to attend the dinner. (Tom Craft, who was Luginbill's Palomar coach, accepted for him)
