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).

Underwood’s news comes out just hours after five-star quarterback Julian Lewis, who had been committed to USC for more than a year, committed to Colorado earlier on Thursday. Days ago, four-star quarterback Husan Longstreet flipped from Texas A&M to the Trojans.
