With two games left...how would you grade Cade Klubnik's season so far?

With two games left, here are Klubnik's stats

63.4%, 2,563 passing yards, 26 TDS, 4 INTS

341 rushing yards, 4 TDS

He's top 20 nationally in pass yards, and fourth in pass TDS.

I'd give him a B+. It hasn't all been perfect, but the improvement from 2023 has been pretty drastic.

He's also put together great moments, and dealt with O-Line injuries and some drops this month.

What grade would you give the junior signal caller?

Comparing to last year I'd say A+. Comparing to the rest of the ncaa this year I'd say A-. He has been pretty dang good.

Class of ‘71. Went through “rat season” and glad I did.


The team had 20 dropped passes coming into Saturday's game. At least 3 more

B+. Greatly improved for sure. Needs to be a little more accurate. Also needs to get better at knowing when to run. Hopefully he comes back next year.

I think there is an opportunity for Cade to use his legs more. He a pretty darn good runner with some good wheels. This would slow the pass rush down a little as well.

As compared to last season, OUTSTANDING!! Greatly improved. His stats are comparable, or better, than all the Clemson greats.

Decision-making

2023, C. 2024, B- Still forgets to toss the ball and runs out of bounds for lost yardage when no receiver is open.

Running on RPOs or designed runs

2023, C-, 2024, B+. Very much improved

Passing to wide outs & TEs

2023, D, 2024 B+. Likely improved in throwing guys open, plus uptick in talent. Much better.

The running game has taken a step back and Mathis NOT a speed back to turn the corner. Unbelievable that no other back has flashed here.

Who has he beaten? He’s padded his stats against crappy teams and been average at best against any team with a pulse (two teams and we lost both games). Some people on here need to grasp the totality of the body of work from this team.

He's definitely been above average but....he's left a lot on the table. Certainly has plenty to improve on for next year.

One thing that drives me insane is he refuses to throw the ball away when he leaves the pocket. DJ used to do that as well and it's maddening.

Solid B+ to an A- in my opinion. Honestly other than Antonio Williams he's been Limited at times with his pass catchers. Bryant hurt a good bit this season but when healthy looks like a stud. TJ looks like another great find. The one guy I'm honestly kind of disappointed in more than anyone? Brinnie... He drops way too many balls to be an early round pick. Point is, a bit more consistency next season and we will have a top 10 offense I BELIEVE.

8 out of 10. Loses 2 points for UGA for nto putting it in the endzone against UGA. He gets a pass for Louisville, there were a ton of issues outside of his control in that game.

I think your post is right on.... B+ is about right. He's made a nice improvement, but still has more room to grow amd get better.

B+ pushing an A- he's a top 10-15 QB rn.

I think he needs to trust his eyes a bit more, he's late on some throws that could be TDs or huge gains. Other than that the occasional inaccurate passes are the other ding.

Positives are the rpo game, using his legs more intelligently, not panicking in a pocket, hitting alot more big plays than missing them, and most importantly it looks like he's a respected leader now.

He’s been an A- He still hasn’t reached his ceiling but is one of the Top 10 QBs in CFB. His supporting cast has gotten better but still a ways to go with the OL and dropsies. Drops are going to happen but we drop a lot of easily catchable balls.

B+. My only complaint is over throws and running out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage.

An 8 out of 10, on par with the rest of the team. He bailed out the rest of the team Saturday, but got bailed out a time or two.

the one that matters is 8-2...

Solid B... he still has upside too... fix a couple of mechanics issues (throwing off back foot, results in underthrown balls, usually once or twice a game), throwing guys open, nuance things, he will either get it or not... hard to teach... but he see's the field and makes stuff happen...

It's a solid A.

He's lights out when the run game is working, but we've been so inconsistent. Opposing coaches know at this point that we cannot run block, so the gameplay is setup to blow up the line of scrimmage.

The WR and O-Line room has been a carousel that hasn't allowed Cade time to settle in.

Cade reminds me so much of Tahj Boyd. They both have the same mental issues. When confident, they are best in the country.....but when that confidence takes one or two hits....they never recover.
