CLEMSON — For all of Garrett Riley’s tenure at Clemson, Cade Klubnik has been his quarterback.
Over the past three seasons, Riley, Clemson’s third-year offensive coordinator, has been tasked with developing and leading the Tigers’ offense. Although there have been many ups and downs, he has grown with the program and developed strong relationships with the players that he helps to perform. One player with whom he holds a special connection is Klubnik.
“I love him, I really do,” Riley said. “He is a mentally tough guy. We’ve gone through it together, and there is a lot of common ground.
