Don't know much about McDowell but in the games I watched he really struggled against Furman, NDSU, and SDSU. On top of that here's his "journey":

2019-2020: Louisiana (Lafayette)
2021: Kilgore (D1 JUCO)
2022: Central Arkansas
2023: Montana
2024: Temple (briefly)
2024: Prairie View A&M (very briefly - maybe not at all)
2024: McNeese (apparently)

I wouldn't want my school to touch him with a 20 foot pole.
