The college football world was rocked by huge recruiting news earlier this week, when it was revealed that Bryce Underwood, one of the top quarterback recruits in the nation, had flipped his commitment from LSU to Michigan. If Underwood indeed ends up at Michigan, it will be a huge coup for the Wolverines and first-year head coach Sherrone Moore, as his team has muddled through a mediocre season in part because of inconsistent quarterback play. It will also keep a local hero at home
The 6-foot-3, 205-pound quarterback played at Belleville High School, which is about 15 miles east of Ann Arbor. But he told LSU nearly a year ago that he intended to play there.
And even as rumors surfaced that Michigan was pursuing him with renewed purpose, Underwood appeared to remain true to LSU. He and his family even wore LSU jewelry in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, earlier this month when Alabama beat the Tigers, 42-13.
Yet things changed in recent weeks, and FOX Sports college football insider Bruce Feldman stopped by the “Big Noon Kickoff” set on Saturday to break it all down.
