J.J. McCarthy’s had an incredible career at Michigan. The junior continues to jettison up the all-time rankings at Michigan and in Michigan’s 41-13 win over Purdue he passed Tom Brady for ninth in program history in passing yards with 5.69. McCarthy can pass Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh in for eighth (5,449 yards) as early as this Saturday against Penn State.
On Monday, head coach Jim Harbaugh talked about the type of player and person McCarthy is. Harbaugh sees McCarthy sharing the traits of two former Super Bowl winners.
“He’s Tom Brady in his preparation, his willingness to be coached, his wanting to do anything and everything that he can for his own personal growth and also for the team,” Harbaugh said.
