It’s evident that junior quarterback JJ McCarthy of the Michigan Wolverines has all the traits you look for in a signal caller. He also managed to earn the starting job for the Wolverines, which is no minor accomplishment. After the season, he will have to make the important choice of joining the 2024 NFL Draft or going back to Michigan for his senior year.
We thought it would be wise to review the former five-star recruit’s statistics in light of the impending decision.
In the second week of the 2022 season, J.J. McCarthy locked up the starting spot for Michigan, and he hasn’t looked back. He would lead the Wolverines to a 13-1 overall record that second year, which featured a huge victory on the road over Ohio State, ranked No. 2.

All right, so where is J.J. McCarthy at this moment?
After having such an exceptional 2022 season, McCarthy is now arguably the most controversial college football quarterback. He is unquestionably a playmaking signal caller on the one hand. Conversely, some have called him little more than a “game manager.”
