We couldn't even find adequate touches for our number 1 back, no way the others were getting action.

Auburn fans are absolutely unreasonable. Klubnik would be Auburn’s best QB since Stidham (Bo dramatically improved at Oregon).

Concepcion (NC State) and Hudson (Texas Tech) both WRs entered the portal. Since I can’t love football season as an Auburn fan I love portal season.

29-9 in 3 seasons? Sign me up for that. 3500 yards and 35 TD’s this year? Sign me up for that.

I think you’d have to be a fool not to take this kid if he wanted to come here.


In 2021 and 2022, Payton Thorne had the following stats:

235/389 3,240 yds 27 TDs 10 INT

242/387 2,679 yds 19 TDs 11 INT

Just saying I feel like we had the same discussion about Thorne way back when.

Klubnik actually improved though

2023 19 TDs and 9 INT’s
2024 29 TDs and 5 INT’s

Thorne didn’t improve

And he is a 5* and can make all the throws

We never had this discussion because Thorne came out of nowhere.

Kept hearing how bad he was then saw his stat lines... ?

Even if he's not an all-american, I feel like this instantly puts our QB situation middle of the pack in the SEC at worst.

He dropped off last year some but that was due to not having a run game to take pressure off.

What exactly am I suppose to get from this?

The discussion?

I guess I wasn’t clear: we never talked about Thorne before it came out of the blue that he committed. That is what I meant. Folks were not clamoring for him before the surprise announcement.

I would take Cade. But Clemsons schedule was abysmal. 2 ranked teams (UsC and GA) and his stats were ugly. I am not sure how you can compare with Mateer's either. WSU's schedule was worse.

ETA

Looking at Clemsons incoming class. Yikes. Dabo is losing it.
