The Pack has put out some tremendous talent since the turn of the century. Here's their best 5 signal callers since 2000.
5. Kordell Rodgers
Year: 2015-16
College: Texas State
Highlights:
Kordell Rodgers is a starting cornerback at Texas State, but imo he's the smoothest QB to grace Lufkin High. At 5'11 180, Rodgers wiggled and scrambled to slice and dice defenses throughout his career. As a junior he threw for 2,133 yards for 23 touchdowns. His senior year those numbers jumped to 3,088 (2nd in school history) passing yards and 30 touchdowns (3rd in school history.) Through his career Rodgers threw for 5,373 yards (4th all time) for 53 touchdowns (5th All Time.)
4. Tyler Stubblefield
YEAR: 2011-12
College: TExas A&M (Baseball)
Highlights:
The not as hefty lefty had a big arm and plenty of talent to toss the ball around to during his playing days at Lufkin. Ja'Bryce Taylor set receiving records under Stubblefield in 2012, while Keke Coutee emerged as one of the top prospects in the state his sophomore season. Stubblefield set the school record for completions throwing 202/330 for a school record 3,582 yards. His 39 touchdown passes are also a school record, as well as most yards in a game with 562 against A&M Consolidated.
3. Terrance Parks
Year: 2002
College: Baylor
The 6'4 240 pounder was a 3 star athlete in the class of 2003 ranked 91 in the state of Texas by Rivals.com. Parks backed up Reggie McNeal, but when he got his chance to QB Lufkin he made the most out of it. Parks completed 198/366 passes as a senior for 2,677 yards and 19 touchdowns while also rushing 185 times for 703 yards and 12 touchdowns. Parks came up short of a back to back, losing in the 5th round against 5A Southlake Caroll.
2. Jeremy Claybon
Year: 2005-06
College: SFA
Highlights:
At 6'1 180, the 3 star Dual-Threat Jeremy Claybon was a headache for a high powered offense in 2006. Claybon was a multi year starter for Lufkin, leading them into deep playoff runs in his career. In 2005 Claybon threw for 2,448 yards and as a senior 2,877. Claybon threw for 60 touchdowns (second in school history). Clay ranks 3rd in school history behind Moore, and McNeal with 5,32S passing yards.
1. Reggie McNeal
Years: 1998-2001
College: Texas A&M
Highlights:
Reggie McNeal is in the Texas High School Hall of Fame. He was the #1 QB in the nation (4.35 40 time) his senior year leading Lufkin to it's only State Championship in school history. Reggie dealt out of the shotgun, something that was unforeseen in the area. That 15-1 season McNeal was the East Texas Player of the Year, throwing for 2,835 yards and 24 touchdowns while rushing for 856 yards and 10 touchdowns. McNeal spent time as a defensive back intercepting 7 passes his senior season. In the season finale, Reggie threw for 223 yards and ran for 159 more.
