Jim Kubiak

He is currently the director of the WNY Quarterback Academy, and he was most recently the head football coach at Hilbert College for their first season in 2022.

During his career, Kubiak played for the Carolina Panthers, Indianapolis Colts, Barcelona Dragons, New York Jets, Buffalo Destroyers, Dallas Desperados, Detroit Fury, and Georgia Force.

After a successful prep career at St. Francis High School in Hamburg, New York, Kubiak attended the United States Naval Academy, where he was a four-year letterman and three-year starter.

In 1991, Kubiak started the season on the JV team and earned a spot on the Midshipmen's final roster.

In 1993, as a junior, he returned to set school records for passing yards (2,628), attempts (401) and completions (248), while throwing 11 touchdowns and 17 interceptions.

In 1998, he signed with the Indianapolis Colts, where he went to training camp but missed the season to fulfill his naval commitment.

His only playing time with the offense occurred on the road against the Chicago Rush when Kelly went down with a strained hip flexor early in the second quarter.

He finished the season 388-of-557 for 4,762 yards, 97 touchdowns and 17 interceptions, all career-highs, while leading the top ranked offense in the league.

However, he was placed on Injured Reserve on February 9, after having surgery in January for a cervical disk herniation between the C-6 and C-7 vertebrae in the base of his neck.
