Three hours before the Michigan Wolverines took on the Washington Huskies in the College Football National Championship game Monday, you may have seen starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy sitting on the field with his back to the goal post—legs criss-crossed, shoes off, number-9 hood up, and eyes closed.
McCarthy has meditated for about 10 minutes before every Michigan game, in addition to between 30 to 40 minutes each day in the morning, according to MLive. He also relies on Bob Marley tunes to pregame.
