Brendan McCole (born 1997/8) is an Irish Gaelic footballer who plays for St Naul's and the Donegal county team.

He has been compared favourably to Neil McGee and suggested as his eventual successor.[1]

McCole is from Mountcharles.[1]

He played for DCU in the Sigerson Cup, winning the trophy in 2020.[2][3] He was the team captain.[4]

Later that year Donegal started him in the final of the 2020 Ulster Senior Football Championship. He was not named in the team to start but was put in as a late change for Ciarán Thompson.[5]
