Rich looks like a proud uncle interviewing his fellow Michigan man.
As Vikings fan, I’m overjoyed to have JJ on the team. JJ to JJ! Great guy…
@jimbodavis
You will not be disappointed
THOSE WHO STAY WILL BE CHAMPIONS...thank you J.J. for everything and good luck to you.
Dude gets a lot of hate but he seems like a pretty down to Earth person. Hope he does well in Minnesota!
This dude was signing autographs in high school and is talking about becoming a GAM... What a humble kid. Can't help but root for him.
On behalf of all Michigan alums, we salute you, JJ. Thanks for one hell of a ride and all the best to you in the pros! Forever go blue 〽️🏆
Well said. Thank you JJ. Go Blue!
How can you NOT like this kid?
Hoping he's a Viking at this time tomorrow 🙏
Right here with you!
YESSSSIRRRRR JJ WELCOME TO MN !!!! JJ TO JJ 🔥 🔥 SKOLLLLLL
Skol!!
Your prayers were answered
Got your wish 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow…. Such an articulate young man! Best of luck JJ!
His hair says typical gen Z but his candor says seasoned veteran 😂. Hope the best for him.
Rich is a legend and has interviewed everyone. The pure joy on his face when he interviews players from this Michigan team is priceless. 😂😂😂
Winning the natty was the best, but my favorite moments of the 23 season was JJ leading that final drive down the field in the Rose Bowl to tie it up and send it to OT. That was so fing legendary! And then, of course, Blake's OT TD run. Both were unbelievable. Go fing Blue!!
Big shout out to you JJ McCarthy for making us U of M alumni & fans so very proud to be a Michigan Wolverine; Go Blue! What a spectacular year it was!🏆〽️
Wishing you all the best as you start the next chapter in your football career. May it be a long & successful one and that you end up where you want be.🎉🏈
Coming from a die hard Ohio State fan, I have mad respect for this guy, what a tremendous young man, always classy, humble yet extremely confident, what impressed me the most is he has a big heart of a champion that led the Michigan team to win the title. I wish him nothing but the best in his pro career.
@thetwo1198 So classy, dude. Thank you from a Michigan guy.
Of course bro, as painful as it is for me to watch we lost The Game 3 years in a row, I have to tip my hat to this Michigan team, they won fair and square. JJ’s ability is very underrated under the Harbaugh system, but I remember every big play he executed perfectly in that 8 minute drive, man it’s so close and I’m still butthurt 😂 but at the end of the day I love the sport and I appreciate these young men who make this sport so fun to watch.
the two, that’s the nicest thing i’ve ever heard a buckeye say about anything michigan in my entire life,
& i started going to games in 1967 when i was 6, our 2nd yr in a2 (from ny)!
@@tomdickandharry7024haha it’s a great rivalry that naturally brought a lot of hatred toward each other. I’m just appreciating the players and the game itself, and of course my favorite players are Buckeyes but I also respect and enjoy watching great players even those wearing maize and blue.
@@thetwo1198as a Michigan fan I feel you. Growing up I loved watching Braxton Miller and Terrell Pryor play. 😂😂
We need the JJ --> JJ connection up here in Minnesota, let’s get it done!
IM SAYING IM IN VIRGINIA BUT PLEASE MINNESOTA BRING THIS MAN
They won't
@@PopPunkSkol At least you're right on the money
@@lincolnchafee9602this aged well 😂
Done!
Damn… that kid is so full of confidence. I rarely watch these interviews because half the time it is like pulling teeth, yet conversation comes so easily to him and what he says is actually interesting.
This guy could sell me a winter coat on a hot summer day. You can see why he has always been a winner. Very happy my Vikings drafted him and wishing him a ton of success.
It amazes me how these really young kids are so freaking polished in the media now. I don't watch college football so I can't speak to his on field performance, but I now see why his draft stock went up. JJ probably has the best in person discussions and interview process. The NFL is hard for young QBs, but he at least seems to have the mentals in place to have a fighting chance to be good.
This! It’s the intangibles.
Many are, but then there are the guys that say, mmmhummm, yes sir, yes sir, you know what I'm sayin, mmmhummm. It's funny how many of those guys I mentioned also are the ones that end up with things like gambling violations, speeding incidents, abuse allegations. Maturity is clearly a big part of being successful at the next level.
This young man will change the culture of the whole locker room, wherever he ends up. He's a born leader.
What a classy young man....his parents are beaming with pride........that is how you raise a man...
He's got the right attitude, it will come down to what team takes him. I don't see him as the savior type, as the guy that's going to quickly elevate a team and turn things around for a bad team. I see him as a solid prospect, given his situation he lands in.
Wow, this kid is impressive and he's 21, yeah? As a Vikings fan, I would NOT be disappointed if they get him.
Skol!!
“We’re soldiers on the football field” Really like his confidence in himself
Love this guy jj im praying you get to mn
Dang, I want JJ behind Goff in Detroit...I know it's not gonna happen but I can dream right?
You’ll see him twice a year at least 😊
@@PopPunkSkolI hope so but not optimistic
He’s a good dude for sure
As a giants fan I'd love to have this kid. I think he's got the "it" factor that Eli had. Wherever he goes I think he'll be great
I’m glad that McCarthy is now playing for my Vikings. To see and hear JJ speak in this interview … you can see his personality. The IT factor.
Vikings trade for this young man
JJ is gonna be great, his mindset is really impressive, whoever got him, got himself in my opinion the best QB of this draft.... save this comment
Love how Rich is such a fan boy for JJ!
JJ 〽️cNatty! Thanks for the 〽️e〽️ories!!! 〽️🏆〽️🏆〽️🏆〽️🏆
Back to 9-3..
@ajpierre the defense might be better this year, back to the playoffs is more like it. The Buttguy Killer Donovan Edwards will take care of the offense...
@@ajpierreWho cares? University of Michigan will forever be true CHAMPS🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆.
Good parenting always show!
One of the best interviews I have ever seen, period. Nothing special but both of you! I as a Dad can relate, wow! My Boy! Ugh...as a devout Wolverine fan, my heart is full after watching this. thanks guy! Go Blue!
No wonder why nfl team love him he’s a great dude with sneaky athleticism
Hoping you’re a Viking by tonight 🙏🏻
We did it!
he seems super chill and cool - and can speak to media pretty effortlessly without having to think much about what he is going to say
JJ is a fine, young man,a great leader and QB.
Fine is right 🥵
I settled on JJ several weeks ago. This interview only confirms I made the correct decision. Hopefully Washington feels the same way.
And hear the I cannot believe Minnesota Vikings fans do not want this guy who wouldn't want this guy
This Viking fan wants him.
Skol!!
If I’m an NFL owner, one of the factors in my urging my GM to select this young man is his vibrant personality that will manifest itself strongly on the field among his teammates; not to mention his marketability off the field that will surely strengthen the team brand!
JJ is a great prospect. Any team would be lucky to draft him as their QB1. Great video from his Dad saying, "My little Quarterback" Truly amazing.
I can hear the pride in Rich’s voice.
I can see why his stock has skyrocketed, man has tons of charisma and confidence in himself can’t help but root for him
Bro already sounds like a pro
I am a fan. Best of luck to you. hope you win at least one SB
I like this kid a lot you put him in a good situation something like Minnesota he will win football games
What a humble dude!
So proud of JJ. I’m so happy our kids won it all but I’m way more happy and proud of their character and the type of first class men they are. GO BLUE 〽️
This is awesome. Hope he goes to Pats or Vikes!
Rich what a great interview! Something about your great voice and personality. your the best
I love what Washington did!
So smart to see them interact with new people in a setting where they can be themselves as much as possible!
GO BLUE! LEGEND FOREVER!
Love this kid
Need to be Minnesota Vikings
JJ McCarthy has a good demeaner. Players in the locker room will respect him and want to play hard for this guy.
Damnit. Now I’m torn between Drake and him lol. As long as one ends up in purple
You can tell this kid is a leader
Skol!! Let's go JJ!
This was awesome
JJ has Jack Harlow vibes .. Chill and laid back. Natural coolness...
Rich, you're the greatest of all time!
Dude is gonna get carded till he's 40
I love that he actually said where he thinks he may end up.
Love ya JJ!
Greatest College QB ever. Gosh I’m gonna miss JJ on Sat. I’m so happy all the Michigan players go out as National Champions.
Go Blue!
That's my QB, skol.
The background kept taking my focus off the interview. Can't wait til youre back in your studio.
Sounds like you need to work on focusing and staying on task… it’s not always going to be catered to you 🫢
Ok, I’m sold! Skol!
JJ is a good kid. If he winds up with the Giants, I won't be mad even though I'm a Jets fan.
JJ on this show? Never woulda seen that coming.
Go be great JJ !
I like JJ and not just cuz he finally brought Michigan back to a level of real respect. You can tell the work he put in cuz he's twice as big as he was when he first was playing at Michigan lol. His upside is really high because he hasn't had the opportunity to just throw like the nfl does and I know he will keep growing. He does win, I do think working on that lob pass will help for sure. God bless family ❤🌈💗
Seems like such a good dude. Worthy to be the face of a franchise!
Time flies you are getting drafted one day and the next day you don't have a career anymore, so enjoy and live the moment, but more than anything glory to God for these moments.
awesome interview kid. goddamn.
How can anyone not love this kid? Scratch that. He's a man. How can anyone not love this guy? Here's hoping he becomes the face of the NFL.
JJ, Blake, Sainristil, and the rest of team 144s names will be echoed throughout Schembechler Hall for 100 years. "I heard Blake Corum...", "Remember when JJ..." They will become mythological figures like Woodson, Desmond, Old 98, Bo, etc. And rightfully so. Best team I've seen in my 40 years.
@YungLilBoii Yes, and I go back to the Bump Elliott years, right before Bo. Many people said Team 144 was as close to an NFL team as a college team could be. I agree.
JJ didn't have the weapons at wr like former UM QBs had either. Not taking anything away from Roman but imagine if he had a WR like Braylon Edwards or David Terrell.
What a phenomenal young man! I’d draft him first myself.
JJ owes Rich 10% of his rookie contract for all the draft stock inflation he’s done for him
skol young man, looking forward to watching you play for the vikings.
2003 was my first year at Michigan. lol
We get it Rich, you went to Michigan
JJ takes it like a mature man with the other QBs at Top Golf while little Jaylen whines and cries to his agent…
That story wasn’t true, JD’s agent started that crap
Yeah this kid’s got a great personality, I see what these GM reports were saying.
I just hope he can handle QB in the NFL as well as he handles interviews
He’s gonna do great things for the Vikings.. SKOL
bro he has the same birthday as me. and my name is JJ lol
Living proof of
Those Who Stay Will Be Champions!
What up with marv in the background. Thats messed up 😂 Go Blue 〽️
JJ, We're gonna love you here with the Vikings, but Can You Get Past the Minnesota Curse? is the question 🤷
I've been a Viking fan for 45 years and been let down😢 but now, hopefully, the " Pieces are in place"😅
May be awhile before you actually start so everyone calm down 🫶🤞
i just drafted him at the 2.10 in my rookie draft
the way he speaks just sounds like a future goat in the NFL
He’s so handsome
I❤JJ
That’s my Quarterback 😢
Rich Eisen, damned glad to meet you. Both Cooper DeJean and I wanted to refer you to our hair stylist that'll have a nutrafoll infused program tailored for you. Personally, I would have gone with Jesse James. If the QB gig doesn't work out, I see Televangelism in your future.
6:41 Internet, go find whoever this 7 year old was. DO YOUR MAGIC ‼️‼️
I'm surprised he went in the first round I had him going in the 3rd. But he landed in a great spot. Chuck it up to j.j and you can't go wrong. He's got a genius head coach 3 stud w.r. he's set! Year 1 he should have over 3500 passing yards and 9 t.ds
I thought the Vikings hosted him also
Hope you become a Viking
It’s no longer hope; it’s reality! We did it!
Well it looks like the Giants for JJ.
Hopefully not
I want the commander’s to take JJ at 2, I think he has that IT factor personally but we will see
that wasnt a little girl.. it was an angel
