I remember watching this after our 2020 disaster season and thinking this guy was so well spoken and motivated for success. 2023 National Champions, 3-peat B1G Champions, Rose Bowl MVP and 3-0 vs ohio state later and he's declared for the NFL Draft. Thank you for everything J.J.
3 years later: Heisman Candidate Beat OSU twice 1st team All-Big Ten Big Ten QB of the year 2,483 Yards 19 TDs 4 int 90.8 QBR (3rd place) All of this with a 3.97 GPA. Safe to say he's pretty great.
Bro if your reading this, Michigan fans are estatic to have you! Take control and lead us! We have been waiting for a guy like you for too long, do us a solid and take charge of the program and do your thing!
Bruceleeroy #Seekthelight&truth Milton has raw talent but not sure if he can put everything together to be an elite QB.. JJ definitely seems to have all the necessary talent to be an elite QB
The drills that JJ does where he practices throws in extreme pressure payed off against Alabama in the rose bowl when he made that one handed grab into backfoot launch to Roman Wilson with a defender in his mouth.
@@MrWest-ph5yg Your TEAM OH is a LOSER. Only 1 TEAM LSU is national championship. Every one ELSE is a LOSER. OH LOSER. Won't even make the playoffs final 4 this year ALL South final. South rules OH LOSER 2-18 AGAINST Clemson, Alabama, LSU, LOSER 💣💣💣💣💣CRYING RAPED BY THE SOUTH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😃😃😭😭
@@S72-r8c who knows might be could be better as a fan that's what you hope anyway I just know IAM tired of seeing them get the shit kicked out of them every Nov something has got change
J.J. goes to Nazareth Academy, my old high school. I have watched him play the last two years and he is incredible. I'm looking forward to watching him play this year as a senior. You Michigan fans are going to love this guy. Nazareth and Michigan have two things in common, we both have J.J. and both yell "GO BLUE!!!!!!".
Not comparing the two, but this is the mentality that Tom Brady started with. Hopefully, this kid keeps that mentality, and proves that he's good on the field during gameplay. Wishing him all the best throughout his college career, and if he makes it into the NFL.
I'm a USC fan, but I love Michigan, my second team and very happy for you guys and today is the BIG game, Michigan vs Penn State, 2022. Go Michigan go. Game starts in just over an hour.
LaGrange is basically Chicago and he makes it sound like it’s in rural Illinois. Talking about using haystacks for working out. Nazareth is literally on a street that starts in Chicago. As everyone from Chicago/the Burbs knows, Chicago/the Burbs is totally different than the rest of Illinois. Basically it’s own state.
Agree, and the gritty kid, played for elite expensive Private school Nazareth Academy in Lagrange Park right next door to Hinsdale one of the wealthiest villages in the country. Haystacks ? More like Mercedes 👍 His handlers have created a cool storyline though 🤔
Fast Forward to 2024, and JJ wasn't just a star. He became a legend at Michigan! 27-1 as a starter, won back-to-back B1G Championships, and won a natty. He also beat OSU×2, PSUx2, retired the goat Saban and beat Bama , and beat Washington.
I witnessed Nazareth Academy & J.J. McCarthy back in 2019 vs. my wife’s alma mater, Rolling Meadows H.S. in the semifinals of the Class 7A State 🏈 playoffs. J.J. was 10 for 11 passing with four touchdowns…in the first quarter!!! (McCarthy finished 19-for-25 passing, 330 yards, 5 TD, 0 INT). My twins and I witnessed the greatest high school quarterback performance ever. Today in 2022, J.J. leads the NCAA in completion percentage 🎯 and #3 Michigan with a perfect 9-0 record so far.
I'm illinois. JJ is a legend and Michigan is my favorite team. So by JJ leading my squad makes it even better. Plus Tyler Morris , and AJ Henning. Go Blue.
If there is one player who can get Michigan in a position to beat OSU, it's this kid. Gotta love his drive and determination. Nothing is given at U of M. Go get it😤〽️〽️〽️
As a Michigan fan I have been following JJ Mccarthy since high-school and I can't believe I have found a video I have not seen before. Just amazing to see a video from 4 years ago and as May 4th 2024 he has not changed. It's hard to believe that a young man his age is willing to put in the time/work to be the man today. I used to be a lion's fan and now I am a vikings fan. I doubt that JJ Mccarthy will ever read this message but if you do congratulations your hard work and dedication has made you a national champion and now the 10th pick in the 2024 draft. I remember when reporters were talking to you about the possibility of being a heisman candidate and you said although it would be an honor you would rather have rings.
This is what I Michigan quarterback should be like, have this mentality of the sky isn’t the limit, only your mind is, nothing can stop you if you don’t let it. I don’t know what are coaches saw in the quarter backs in the past couple seasons (mich fans should know everyone I’m talking about) but they definitely got a gem here. Hopefully JJ is the first of many great quarterbacks to come and no more garbage quarterbacks!
Thomas Vorm I cannot argue that O’Korn is bad- but that kid from 08/09(?!) that’s dad was a coach was the worst starter I’ve ever seen now I’ll have to google his name now
Rumor is there switching eamonn to corner back?! how do you think he would do? I think he would be a beast of offense ,but i believe they think we have enough slot type guys?
I honestly think this class is the next 2005 or 2017 Class with even more talent. Yah there will be a Bust or 2. But I think as for Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, JJ McCarthy, and Bo Nix we are looking at the next 4 big names in the NFL.
His hardest games as a freshman starter would be at Wisconsin, at Penn State, at Nebraska, home vs OSU. That is brutal! Hopefully he is better than Shea!
And now he's on the vikings at 21 😂 I wonder where he'd be if he stuck with hockey? Well, I think he made the right choice. The Wayne Gretzky of the Minnesota Vikings
Now, his next task is leading my ( not literally ) Minnesota Vikings to a Superbowl victory. I'm old enough to remember watching the last three Superbowl losses ( Miami, Pittsburgh, then Oakland, now LA Raiders ) and I was 5 when they lost the first one to the Chiefs, was more focused on playing cars on the floor and/or running around with manic 5 year old energy...... Just one B4 I die - that's what I'm asking.
![UCF Professor Richard Quinn accuses class of cheating [Original]](/img/n.gif)
JJ took us to the top and won it all... The man the myth the legend thank you jj for everything.

Big Ten QB of the year
2,483 Yards
19 TDs
4 int
90.8 QBR (3rd place)
All of this with a 3.97 GPA. Safe to say he's pretty great.
And beat Bama and taking us to a National Championship game in 5 days!!! GO BLUE!!
CFP National Champion now!
Guaranteed 1st round pick now
He had more yards and TD than that!
JJ is definitely a special player. So glad 〽️ got him.
Go Blue!!!
Bro if your reading this, Michigan fans are estatic to have you! Take control and lead us! We have been waiting for a guy like you for too long, do us a solid and take charge of the program and do your thing!
That's my QB !!!!
Yessir!〽️〽️
They finally got the National Championship!
Michigan needs a hard working solid qb, this guy is a perfect fit
put his ass on the team
Bout to get smoked
Joe Milton
Well he’s at IMG now
He’s behind joe and dylan first
This kid just became a legend at Michigan!!
That lasted a few weeks, he flopped hard.
@@bigwitt187 ?? He was the only reason Michigan could move the ball lmfao
@@bigwitt187yeah Becuase he was the reason they were even in that game😭
@bigwitt187 The legacy of your performance against ohio state is eternal. Automatic legend
Yes sirrrr
*I COME FROM THE FUTURE AND THIS BOY JUST HUMILIATED OHIO ST. IN COLUMBUS.* 🤣
@Ernie H
And what happened to the Ohio St kicker ?
LOL 🤣
Had to come from behind , made some mistakes but also some huge plays . Didn’t fold like an OSU qb 😅🥶
@Ernie H refs
He did it again in Michigan
I come from the further future with news and...he did it again😊
Hopefully he’s the elite quarterback Michigan has been missing.
Seems like a great kid.
Go Blue!!
We have joe Milton but harbaugh choose Patterson last two years
Bruceleeroy #Seekthelight&truth Milton has raw talent but not sure if he can put everything together to be an elite QB.. JJ definitely seems to have all the necessary talent to be an elite QB
Kenny Ho your not sure cuz of harbaugh and his transfer choices
Kenny Ho been should have let Milton in
@Kenny Ho GO BLUE! 💛💙
"I wanna take Michigan to the top"
Mission accomplished, I'd say!
“I want to take Michigan to the top”…that aged really well! National Champions, thank you JJ! :)
Only getting better.. could be one of the best Michigan has ever had
Playing hockey speeds up your decision making and gives you great vision, especially peripheral vision.
Played hockey with him, he was great at both Michigan boutta go crazy
That white board shows me this kid lives and breathes this shit. His intangibles deserve a lot more credit
Lol 😂😂. Simp
Gotta give dude hella props tho, mans a hardworking beast💯
I expected more people to check in now that he won the natty. Congrats.
What a legend.
Come back here after we made the playoffs he really did help us make it to the top
2 full seasons as Starter:
Passing:
Cmp% 68% 8.7 YPP 158 Rating
6,226 yds 49TD 11INT 88.2 QBR
Rushing:
161 Carries for 632 yds 3.9 YPC 10TD
26-1 as a starter, 3-0 against Ohio State, national title. Greatest QB in Michigan history
The drills that JJ does where he practices throws in extreme pressure payed off against Alabama in the rose bowl when he made that one handed grab into backfoot launch to Roman Wilson with a defender in his mouth.
Love this dude!〽️〽️〽️
Can’t wait to see him starting. He’s going to ball out and be one of Michigan footballs greats.
Still goes 0-4 against Ohio State
Still never sniffs a Big Ten Cha❌pionship. It's the ❌ichigan way.
Don't worry in typical Harbaugh fashion, a 2nd string transfer from New Mexico State will start over him.
@@MrWest-ph5yg Your TEAM OH is a LOSER. Only 1 TEAM LSU is national championship. Every one ELSE is a LOSER. OH LOSER. Won't even make the playoffs final 4 this year ALL South final. South rules OH LOSER 2-18 AGAINST Clemson, Alabama, LSU, LOSER 💣💣💣💣💣CRYING RAPED BY THE SOUTH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😃😃😭😭
Will still lose to the Ohio state buckeyes
These videos keep me geeked waiting for next football season. This young man is going to be a great fit in Ann Arbor. Go Blue
2 more seasons then we will have him hopefully he’s only a junior in high school right now
L
As a Michigan fan MAN i cant wait til you’re here
It's time .2 years later!!!!!!!!!
Keep it up kid 💪 ignore the haters bring Michigan back to greatness can't wait to see you come 2021
To get clapped by the buckeyes again
Don't be mad cause your running back got hurt and I think this kid is going to stomp a mud hole in some osu ass will see
@@williamcannady6753 I'm not mad it's just facts you guys get one descent player and think your gonna make it to the playoffs he's not Joe burrow

Your right. He does have that same mentality. It is why he will be successful in the Pro's..
btw he is only a junior in high school with a LOT of potential
Oh wow
This kid is our one chance in many years to have a great qb that may lead us to a championship
I'm a USC fan, but I love Michigan, my second team and very happy for you guys and today is the BIG game, Michigan vs Penn State, 2022. Go Michigan go. Game starts in just over an hour.
1 more game …
Dude is gonna lead Michigan to a national championship
👍
This aged well

That’s what they said about Shea but I wish him the best 😂
Until he plays Ohio State and is shown to just average
God Bucks!
Hunter Agosti this kids better than shea
We never said that about Shea he was a transfer. Smh

@@diavolos2939 Michigan is still winning head to head bruh👍🏼
I see diavolos deleted his embarrassing post
Maybe put up a picture of the MC defense that held him 8 of 25 with under 120 passing instead of the whiteboard

thinking the same thing
Oh ya big facts the caravan are insane

That picture of Tom Brady in the mirror is awesome I need that poster 😅 Best of luck to JJ 2023 Michigan has unfinished business. Go blue!!
This kid got a lot of offers. Even though I’m an Ohio state fan, I’m excited to see him play at michigan
Cream puffs conference
You still excited after the 2 straight a.. kickings JJ and Michigan has given Ohio State. Go Blue.

Michigan very well could have a different qb in four straight years

2020: dylan mccaffrey
2021: Joe Milton
2022: JJ McCarthy
Anything but Patterson is a net benefit
@@mrob2185 anything but okorn is a net benefit lol
