Has Vizzina Created Confidence That He Can Be ‘The Guy’ at QB?

With the upcoming Pinstripe Bowl set to be the final collegiate game for senior Cade Klubnik, Clemson will have to settle on a new starting quarterback in 2026.

One candidate to replace Klubnik, of course, is Christopher Vizzina, who will be a redshirt junior next season.

Earlier this month, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney discussed Vizzina, when Swinney was asked if he anticipates the Tigers taking a quarterback from the transfer portal to compete in 2026.

Clemson signed a pair of quarterbacks in its 2026 recruiting class – three-stars Tait Reynolds and Brock Bradley – to go with Chris Denson, who will be a redshirt freshman next year, and Vizzina.
