Israel is Florida Prep All Time Leading Passer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In case you have been asleep for the last two high school football seasons, \u00a0there’s a new owner of virtually every meaningful passing record in Florida high school football. \u00a0When you leave the high school game owning the record for\u00a0single game passing yards, career passing yards, career completions, career passing touchdowns, single season passing touchdowns and, now, single season passing yards you’ve pretty much done things right. \u00a0That’s exactly what you can say about about Lake Nona HS, Florida’s Tucker Israel.<\/p>\n

Israel completed his high school career last Friday night when his Lake Nona team was eliminated from the playoffs with a 48-38 loss to Lakeland High School in the 7A playoffs. \u00a0Of course disappointed, \u00a0Israel has nothing to be sorry\u00a0about from a personal standpoint. \u00a0Standing 5’11”, \u00a0Israel does not possess the 6’4″ height that most college football QB coaches covet but that meant nothing on Friday nights when he torched Florida high school defenses for over 13,o0o yards during his prep career. \u00a0Sure, Israel’s numbers are a product of a pass happy system run by Lake Nona but pass happy spread offenses are all the craze across Florida and the United States. \u00a0With that said, \u00a0no one in the state has ever done it like Israel. \u00a0In addition to the 13,000 plus yards passing, \u00a0Israel dropped 157 passes into opponents’ end zones. \u00a0That is truly a staggering stat when you realize that is an average of 39 per season.<\/p>\n

We could go on and on about all of the records he has rewritten during his career but it should be pointed out that Israel is not just your typical record breaking QB that doesn’t have the goods for the next level. \u00a0Israel juggled offers from many major division I programs like Florida, LSU and UCLA before settling on Clemson in February of this year. \u00a0A look at his film and you can see why Israel is a legit prospect. \u00a0He has a smooth delivery, is comfortable in the pocket and has laser accuracy. \u00a0Defenses were truly outmatched each Friday Night as was Lakeland in last week’s playoff contest. \u00a0 Israel lead Lake Nona to a lead late in the game vs. the perennial powerhouse but could not hold it as Lakeland battled back for the 48-38 win. \u00a0 Only the Dreadnaughts win could pull the pen out of Israel’s hand and prevent him from writing quarterbacking records for prep excellence in a spot where no one could ever touch them.<\/p>\n
