big-arm WKU QB with proven high-school production, but no current 2026 Hilltoppers role
McDonald’s calling card is real production: in his senior-high-school profile he was a high-volume passer with 3,812 yards and 49 touchdowns in a season, and WKU listed him as a 6-2, 205-pound quarterback with a strong pocket profile. The catch: public roster and stat sources do not show him as an active 2026 contributor for Western Kentucky, and a 2022 report said he was no longer with the program, so he reads more like a name to verify than a clear current fit.
