Roaring into prominence as a sophomore in the final period of the Florida game in 1970, Gary Huff remained to re-write the Florida State record book. The Tampan still holds more than thirty FSU records for passing, total offense and touchdown production. His 2,770 yards is the mark for season total offense, while his 6,086 yards is the career record. In passing his 206 completions and 2,293 yards are season standards and his 436 completions and 6,378 yards are career passing records. Huff had 11 straight 200 yard games at quarterback and 5 times passed more than 300 yards. He accounted for 6 touchdowns in one game, 26 in a season and 54 over his career. In 1972, his senior year, Huff was Seminole co-captain.
After graduation Huff played with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers and now coaches at Indiana University. From 1970-72 his rifle arm made Florida State's aerial game one of the nation's most exciting.
