Michigan concluded the season with a perfect 15-0 record. Jim Harbaugh, the head coach, missed three games due to a dispute with sign-stealing in the fall.
While there are still uncertainties surrounding Harbaugh’s professional future, McCarthy said in his letter on Sunday that he conferred with the coach before deciding to enter the NFL draft.
McCarthy said, “I’ve talked to a lot of people in and out of football, including my family, Coach Harbaugh, and many whose viewpoints I really respect and admire.”
“I adore my colleagues, so making this decision was not simple, but how could it be? I adore Ann Arbor and my coaches as well.
Mel Kiper Jr. of ESPN believes that McCarthy is the fifth quarterback available in this year’s draft.
Before joining Michigan in 2015, Harbaugh coached the 49ers from 2011 to 2014. He is anticipated to interview next week for the head coaching position with the Chargers.
