2 Louisville Cardinals stocks rising, 2 that are falling after second fall scrimmage
4. Rising - Stanquan Clark
A name that has been brought up a lot this offseason, and specifically fall camp, is Stanquan Clark. The junior linebacker has earned high praise from coaches, staff, players, and national media.
Head coach Jeff Brohm mentioned that his two linebackers are having one of the best fall camps on the team, and Clark is becoming a team leader every day. After the elite linebacker earned a spot on the Butkus Award Watch List, it became clearer that he is poised for another breakout season.
Clark is coming off a season where he earned the second-most tackles. He logged 76 total tackles (43 solo), two forced fumbles, two interceptions, two pass deflections, and 0.5 sacks. Clark's breakout game last season was against the Clemson Tigers when he helped lead this defense to shut down Dabo Swinney's Tigers after earning 13 total tackles, a career high in a single game.
The 6-foot-3, 235-pound linebacker has shown nothing but brilliance this offseason and has fans believing he will have an even better 2025 season.
