Tom Luginbill (born January 3, 1974) is a college football analyst for ESPN. Luginbill grew up in Tempe, Arizona and San Diego. He is the son of the professional and college coach Al Luginbill.
Luginbill was the starting quarterback for three colleges over his four-year career. He had varying degrees of success ranging from a national championship to a one win season. He played football for Palomar College (Juco) from 1992–1993, where he amassed 21 wins. In 1993, he led Palomar to the National Junior College championship and a perfect 11–0 record, and was named a first-team All-American by the Junior College Athletic Bureau. Luginbill also set the all-time national junior college record for passing while playing for Palomar Junior College, becoming the most highly recruited junior college player in the nation. He still owns numerous team records at Palomar (as of January 26, 2010).
He then transferred to Georgia Tech and won the starting quarterback position in 1994 from Donnie Davis, who had started all eleven games the previous year. In 1994, despite Luginbill turning in performances that would earn him ACC Rookie of the Year honors, the Jackets, purportedly embroiled in controversy over the decision to demote Davis and start Luginbill, would manage to only defeat Division I-AA Western Carolina going 1–10 on the season. With the departure of Bill Lewis and instatement of George O'Leary as the head coach at Georgia Tech, a change in offensive scheme would prompt Luginbill to consider another transfer. Luginbill transferred and played his final year at Eastern Kentucky in 1995.
Luginbill went into the Arena Football League and played for the Texas Terror in 1996 and the Florida Bobcats in 1997.
