Five-Star Plus+ QB Bryce Underwood the new No. 1 in 2025 On3 Industry Ranking

Belleville (Mich.) quarterback Bryce Underwood was named the country’s No. 1 overall prospect by On3 back in March. Now, that honor extends to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting services.

After rankings changes across the industry, Underwood jumped three spots to No. 1 overall on the On3 Industry Ranking. He is also a Five-Star Plus+ prospect now, the rare recruit the garners 5-star status by all four recruiting services.

The 6-foot-3, 210-pound Underwood remained uncommitted and continues to visit powerhouse programs around the country. He has visited in-state Michigan and Michigan State more than any other school, with Ohio State not far behind.

“Michigan has really done an excellent job here early,” On3 Director of Recruiting Chad Simmons wrote in May. “Bryce Underwood has visited Ann Arbor more than any other school and he and his family have connected quickly with new quarterback coach Kirk Campbell. There is comfort at Michigan for Underwood. He knows people there, he likes what the program is about, and although it is very early, the in-state program looks to be in a favorable spot.

“Ohio State is coming on strong. He has visited Columbus a couple of times and we know Ryan Day and Corey Dennis will land a top quarterback each cycle. The offense, the weapons he would have to work with and the development have Underwood’s attention. Other schools on his radar are LSU, Michigan State, Penn State and USC.”

Underwood currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $435K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

Michigan leads in the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine (RPM) with a 36.1% chance to land Underwood’s commitment. Not far behind are Michigan State at 19.9% and Ohio State at 10.4%.
