LSU Football Battles to Keep Bryce Underwood Despite Michigan’s Efforts
In this podcast, Matt Moscona, host of Locked on LSU, covers LSU Footballs fierce recruitment of Bryce Underwood, the top quarterback prospect for 2025, as Michigan makes a late attempt to sway him before signing day. This recruit represents a significant investment for LSU, having committed almost a year ago. Moscona details LSU’s strong relationship-building with Underwood and the Tigers’ emphasis on quarterback development, which has led to NFL-caliber players like Joe Burrow and Jayden Daniels.
Michigan’s Recruitment Push
Despite Underwood’s commitment to LSU Football, Michigan, led by head coach Sherrone Moore, is trying to lure him back to his home state. On3’s Pete Nakos reports that Michigan’s new recruiting efforts include an NIL package valued at over $5 million. This aligns with LSU’s NIL offer, highlighting both programs’ strong financial commitment to attract top talent. Michigan’s efforts have gained traction with the help of Michigan alumnus Dave Portnoy, who is actively supporting a lucrative NIL package to secure top quarterbacks.
LSU Football Advantage: Stability and Development
LSU Football has a key advantage in offensive coordinator Joe Sloan, who has a well-established rapport with Underwood and his family. The Tigers track record in quarterback development, producing standout players for the NFL, strengthens the appeal for Underwood, who seeks a program prioritizing long-term player growth over immediate NIL rewards.
Underwood’s father, Jaquan, emphasized that this decision will be football-focused, with money secondary to opportunities for growth and career advancement.
Final Takeaway
With signing day only weeks away, LSU Football remains confident in its chances, bolstered by a solid relationship with Underwood and their established record in quarterback development. Michigan’s last-minute efforts are significant, but it’s clear Underwood values a program where he can grow both on and off the field.
