The Michigan Wolverines broke the college football recruiting news cycle this week when after months of trying, they flipped the consensus No. 1 high school player in the country in quarterback Bryce Underwood.

It has been a rough year for the defending national champions, but on Thursday, the Wolverines got some great news: The nation’s No. 1 recruit, quarterback Bryce Underwood — an athletic 6-foot-4, 205-pound 17-year-old — announced he was flipping his commitment from LSU to Michigan.

Underwood’s announcement marked the third straight recruiting cycle where a high-profile quarterback recruit in Michigan would be leaving the state to play college football, joining Detroit Martin Luther King’s Dante Moore in 2023 (signed with LSU but since transferred to Oregon), and Saline’s CJ Carr in 2024 (Notre Dame).
