On this episode, the guys welcome our first current college athlete to the pod to discuss his journey to become one of college football's leading quarterbacks going into the 2025 season. Cade discusses why he has turned down transfer portal offers for several years, and the value he has placed on staying at a place like Clemson for his entire college career. Cade authentically discusses the adversity he faced in his sophomore year at Clemson, how he faced it and grew from it, and how much he values going through the fire with his teammates. His discussion of the commitment to hard work every single day that athletes must embrace to achieve their goals is inspiring, and he shares his take on what true leadership looks like, especially when things aren't going well. In addition, Cade talks about what it was like to grow up and play ball at Westlake HS in Austin Texas, where he never lost a game, even in middle school. He also share his recruiting story and offers advice to high school kids today regarding what they should be considering when selecting a school to play at. Whether you are a Clemson fan (like Jeff Francoeur) or not, you will likely become a Cade Klubnik fan after listening to this inspiring episode.
