McCall’s decision does not come as a huge shock. The Chanticleers’ program is undergoing major upheaval after coach Jamey Chadwell accepted the head coaching position at Liberty.

McCall figures to attract plenty of interest from highly-rated Power 5 programs. Despite being lightly recruited out of high school, he became a star for the Chanticleers, most notably in 2020 when he led the team to an undefeated regular season. He was nominated for both the Davey O’Brien Award and Manning Award, which both recognize the nation’s best quarterback.

McCall went 26-3 at Coastal Carolina with a remarkable 72:7 touchdown-to-interception ratio. That is impressive regardless of the level of competition, and the redshirt junior should be highly recruited once he enters the portal.
