Jim Harbaugh shares unfiltered thoughts on QB J.J. McCarthy's future with Vikings
The Minnesota Vikings traded up to select J.J. McCarthy with the 10th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft on Thursday, setting off a string of reactions on the ex-Michigan Wolverines quarterback's new fit.

His coach in Ann Arbor, Jim Harbaugh, previously called McCarthy "the best quarterback in the draft." Now the signal-caller is headed for a rookie QB's dream scenario in the Twin Cities.

On Friday, now-Los Angeles Chargers HC Harbaugh's reaction to McCarthy's selection went viral on X as Harbaugh described his "love" for the Wolverines' national championship-winning quarterback.
Harbaugh said he "love(s) McCarthy like a son" while sharing his feelings of excitement for the La Grange Park, Illinois native, who was drafted to the team he most wanted to play for at the next level.
McCarthy also got a shout-out from current Michigan football head coach Sherrone Moore, who reiterated that the Vikings were McCarthy's dream destination.

"It's been a long process to see it happen but I knew that's where he wanted to go," Moore said on "The Rich Eisen Show" Friday.
