At the beginning of November, Michigan football fans began to become excited for what the rest of the world of college football thought it was a pipe dream. However, on November 20, the global recruit n ° 1, Belleville (Mich.) The five-star quarterrier Bryce Underwood shocked everyone when he made the sudden flip of Lsu (where he has been hired since January) in Michigan football.
The national experts did not see him coming, the initiates of the LSU either. It was a complete shock for the system, but the Wolverines had quietly worked on Underwood on all fronts – secret visits, a lucrative Nile offer, and more, Michigan did the job.
But why did Underwood decided to stay at home and play university football in Ann Arbor? He appeared on the Big Ten Network and explained why he had flip in corn and blue.
“Honestly, the heritage that accompanies it, as well as the resources, as well as the great education I have,” said Underwood. “This is one of the major factors that came with this decision that I made.”
Underwood arrived on the campus shortly after signing in early December and started training with the team later in the month, including in Tampa while the Wolverines were preparing to face the Alabama in the bondiaquet bowl .
But above all that, a call from a prominent Wolverine helped him decide, yes, it might be better to swing on a winged helmet instead of descending to Baton Rouge.
“I’ve already talked to Tom Brady, so he’s one of the biggest, and that’s the main thing I’m talking. Really. Just a great experience to live,” said Underwood. What Brady said to him, Underwood said, “Honestly, how much I am a great player and how much potential they see in me and how better I can be.”
It is a fairly large exchange of cutting that Sherrone Moore and her staff had in their quiver.
Despite his talent, it is not clear if Underwood will start or not on the first day given that Michigan brought in the former quarter of Fresno, Mikey Keene, who has four years of experience, To compete and probably start the 2025 campaign as a Wolverine Starter. However, given the talent of Underwood, do not count it by being the first QB under the center at the end of August.
