Kevin McCarthy brings proven edge-rush production and all-conference pedigree to Idaho State
McCarthy’s calling card is disruption: in high school he posted 120 tackles, 24 sacks and 35 tackles for loss, earning First Team All-County, All-Conference and All-State honors plus Hillsborough County’s Jimbo Kynes Lineman of the Year award.[1] That kind of production suggests a high-motor defender who can finish plays in the backfield and impact games beyond the stat sheet. If Idaho State is looking for a quarterback/defensive centerpiece? There’s a data mismatch here: the available reliable source shows McCarthy as a defensive lineman, not a QB.[1]
