BREAKING: 5-Star Quarterback Bryce Underwood Sends Shocking Message to Michigan Wolverines and Florida State Seminoles, Sparking Recruiting Frenzy
In a stunning twist in the college football recruiting world, 5-star quarterback Bryce Underwood—widely regarded as the No. 1 overall prospect in the 2025 class—has sent shockwaves through two powerhouse programs, Michigan and Florida State, with a message that has reignited speculation and drama around his recruitment.
Underwood, who committed to LSU earlier this year, took to social media late Wednesday night to post a cryptic message that read, “Still love my home teams. Doors are never fully closed.” The message, accompanied by images of him in Michigan and FSU gear from past visits, immediately went viral, sparking a frenzy among fans and recruiting analysts.
The signal-caller from Belleville, Michigan has long been considered a generational talent. With a rocket arm, elite mobility, and football IQ well beyond his years, Underwood had been heavily recruited by top programs across the nation. Michigan, his in-state powerhouse, was once believed to be the front-runner, while Florida State surged late in his recruitment before he ultimately pledged to Brian Kelly’s LSU Tigers.
Now, the cryptic post has raised serious questions: Is Underwood having second thoughts? Could a flip be in the works? And how will this impact the already heated 2025 recruiting landscape?
Sources close to the situation suggest that while Underwood remains committed to LSU, he has maintained close ties with staff at both Michigan and Florida State. One source told 247Sports, “Bryce has always said he wants to keep relationships open, and while he’s committed to LSU, he hasn’t completely shut the door on other schools.”
Michigan fans were quick to rally online, with many calling for head coach Sherrone Moore to make a final push to bring the hometown hero back into the fold. FSU fans, still stinging from losing out on Underwood earlier, are now buzzing with hope as their coaching staff continues to aggressively pursue top-tier talent.
This latest twist comes at a crucial time in the recruiting calendar. With official visits approaching and NIL deals becoming increasingly influential, the message from Underwood could signal a shift—or simply be a strategic move to keep options open and leverage interest.
Regardless, one thing is clear: Bryce Underwood just made things a lot more interesting. Whether he stays loyal to LSU or shakes up the recruiting world once again, all eyes will be on his next move.
Stay tuned. This story is far from over.
