You're in luck! Playing quarterback in NFL is a big dream and choosing the right college can certainly help you turn that into a reality. Of course, keep in mind that to get to the NFL, it's not just about the college you attend but also your commitment, talent, and performances both on and off the field.

You asked for colleges that are known for producing several NFL quarterbacks. There are indeed some schools that have a reputation for developing NFL-ready signal-callers:

1. The University of California, Berkeley: This is the alma mater of several well-known NFL quarterbacks, including Aaron Rodgers and Jared Goff. It's considered a "QB factory."

2. Stanford University: With alumni like Andrew Luck, John Elway, and Jim Plunkett, Stanford has a rich history of developing successful NFL quarterbacks.

3. The University of Southern California: Your path could follow that of alumni like Carson Palmer, Matt Leinart, and Sam Darnold if you choose USC.

4. University of Michigan: Quarterbacks like Tom Brady, Chad Henne, and Brian Griese have all come through Michigan.

5. Purdue University: Called the "Cradle of Quarterbacks," notable Purdue alumni who played quarterback in the NFL include Drew Brees, Bob Griese, and Len Dawson.

Remember, choosing a college should also factor in academics, the coaches, their style of play, geographic location, and overall team performance. A great program can only help so much, it'll be up to your hard work and dedication to put you on the path to the NFL. Best of luck with your ambitions!
