Not hating on KB2 as I wish him the best but he is not a NFL level talent at QB. Sometimes life is hard but hopefully he can find a path outside of football

He’s arguably better than Jake Fromm, no?

No, he's not. Fromm is much more accurate, has a quicker release, and makes better decisions. Fromm's problem has always been choking in big games against good defenses. While that's not good, that's something that can be worked on. I'm not sure Bryant's problems are capable of getting fixed (and Bryant also choked terribly in the only really big game he ever had).

Also Fromm's arm is supposedly not strong enough.

I love KB for what he did here but he and Fromm's numbers are not even close.

All he needs to do is call Maria, and he's a well-kept man for life.

How did he put it?
Apr 25, 2020, 11:47 PM

I think he said he was not given a fair shot? I remember a good portion of Clemson fans that were irate over the benching of Kelly B., saying we just benched an NFL QB, and it was his time. I doubt any would admit to it now.

I don't remember a single person here being irate about the KB benching. TL had come off a 4 td game against GT and it was clear to everybody including the staff that Trevor was the qb moving forward.

Most of us thought it was a great call and that we had to stretch the field and that KB didnt do that like TL could. I agree.

I thought KB should have started like he did and I believe it was wrong to rotate them like we did but it all worked out and TL did earn the job after the GT game imo. Ofcourse I am thrilled with the outcome of what happened lol.

TL would start the next game because he had earned it. Previous games, Kelly started and they both played. I think Kelly would have continued to see playing time but KB, just like everyone other than Maria Taylor, saw that TL was the more gifted player and would take over as the season went on. KB chose to view this as disrespect and chose to leave. No one forced him out. Clemson fans loved and respected him but understood competition for playing time.

The NFL, unfortunately for KB, deals only in ability from a
Apr 26, 2020, 10:15 AM

business perspective. He had enough ability to get him to college, but not enough to get him to the NFL level. That writing was on the wall several years ago. I do not believe anyone could argue that KB was anything like as prolific a passer as Tajh Boyd, and TB couldn't catch on and stay in the league. I hope Maria Taylor is willing to find a place for KB in her house, she seemed to be really taken with him.

Should have moved to any position when he had a chance! XFL maybe if it comes back.
