333 yards, 5 touchdowns and 0 interceptions — you could say it was a pretty successful senior year debut for Michigan five-star commit J.J. McCarthy.

The quarterback was playing in his first game leading the IMG Academy Ascenders, the veritable all-star squad, on national TV, no less. Taking on the Venice Indians on ESPN U on Friday night, McCarthy made a series of impressive plays, which earned him the GEICO Player of the Game honors.

It’s exactly what you want to see out of the Michigan football commitment, especially considering other quarterbacks have been getting more hype following this summer’s Elite 11.

McCarthy completed 23 of his 37 passes en route to a 49-13 IMG Academy victory.

We found some highlights of a handful of his 5 touchdowns, which you can check out below.
