CBS Sports released its questions for each ACC team this spring recently, and Clemson's comes on the offensive side:
"Can Cade Klubnik level up his game? Clemson's coaching staff is challenging Klubnik, the former five-star prospect who enters his junior season with 21 touchdowns and 12 interceptions as a Tiger, and looking for him to improve in several ways in order to unlock the offense's full potential. They want Klubnik to get stronger and have more pocket awareness (he took 28 sacks in 2023) as well as get a better feel for situational football after some of his more disappointing moments came in key spots of close losses. This is not a one-man scenario, though; Clemson needs pass catchers and a solid offensive line to help Klubnik in those efforts. Given his blue-chip pedigree, it's fair to look for a big step forward from the Tigers quarterback in his second full season as a starter."
