  02/25/23 - QB J.J. McCarthyJr/2024, Michigan

  There is no quarterback controversy at Michigan heading into this season as J.J. McCarthy returns from leading the Wolverines to a 13-1 record last fall in his first year as full-time starter. By no means is McCarthy a finished product and will use spring practice to further develop his game under the tutelage of new Michigan quarterback coach Kirk Campbell, who was elevated to the role after one season as an offensive analyst. He replaces Matt Weiss, co-offensive coordinator/QB coach, fired last month amid an ongoing police investigation into alleged computer access crimes. Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy completed 65% of his attempts for 2,719 yards and 22 touchdowns, against five interceptions, last season. He also had 70 carries for 306 yards and five touchdowns. The good news for McCarthy is he actually gets to practice this spring after missing last year while rehabbing a labrum injury in his right (throwing) shoulder. He won the starting job following the second game of the season last fall after Cade McNamara, who helped lead the Wolverines to a 12-2 record that included a Big Ten title in 2021 and a College Football Playoff appearance, started Game 1.

McCarthy led Michigan to the program's first win at Ohio State since 2000, a second Big Ten title and another CFP appearance The junior-to-be completed 65% of his attempts for 2,719 yards and 22 touchdowns, against five interceptions, last season. He also had 70 carries for 306 yards and five touchdowns. "Tremendous physical ability and athletic ability and in every single way that you would want your quarterback," Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh said Thursday at a news conference. "The rare thing is that he would sacrifice anything for any player on this team. Personally, he's just so willing to do whatever is best for the team. I would follow him anywhere. Happily. I suggest that all players on our team do the same thing. He's just really, really good at it. "As far as anything you tell him, I mean, any coaching point that you give, he just he absorbs it and will make the correction immediately. It's tremendous." - Detroit News
