Jake McNamara gives ETSU a steady, ready-made QB option with sneaky big-play upside
In the 2025 season, Jake McNamara flashed as a reliable, next-man-up quarterback for ETSU, completing 25 of 37 passes for 305 yards and 2 touchdowns while adding a 176-yard, 2-TD breakout against VMI. At 5-foot-11 and 196 pounds, he’s not a pure highlight machine, but he brings poise, preparation, and enough mobility to keep defenses honest. Reliable coverage called him a pro-style passer, and ETSU’s staff praised how he “prepares like he’s a starter.” If you want a composed, system-fit QB who can step in without blinking, he’s your guy.
