Five Star Plus+ QB Bryce Underwood ready to see Tiger Stadium alive

2025 Belleville (Mich.) quarterback Bryce Underwood is coming off LSU and Michigan visits to cap his recruiting visits in the summer. Both programs hosted him at the end of July, but it was the Tigers who got the Five Star Plus+ prospect on campus for multiple days.

“It was a fun time there,” Underwood told On3’s Zach Libby. “I had a great time. The best part was mainly the food, for sure. That was nice. I like (cajun food) now (laughs). It’s amazing, actually. Visiting Baton Rouge helped me like it more.

“LSU has a lot of coaches on its staff who came from Grand Valley State. That’s good that they have a lot of coaches who were here.”

LSU quarterbacks coach Joe Sloan is among the coaches who reached out on August 1 as junior recruiting got underway. Sloan’s built a good bond with the 6-3, 210-pound signal caller.

“Me and coach Sloan talk every week,” Underwood said. “He’s one of the coaches who I have a good relationship with. He’s a great coach and knows what he’s talking about. He can prepare me for the NFL.”

This year, LSU returns quarterback Jayden Daniels, who Underwood called a “really good guy” and the pair have talked. Next up for him is seeing Daniels and the Tigers in action in Tiger Stadium.

“Just a game, I need to watch a game,” Underwood said. “I haven’t seen a game there yet.”

By the end of this season, which will lead to Underwood’s commitment date on January 6, he wants to finish with a 75 percent completion percentage. He’s eyeing a game visit to Michigan and other programs this fall.

“I’m actually preparing for college and the NFL,” Underwood said. “I’m preparing for what’s ahead past high school. That’s one of my main goals.”

Underwood is also ranked as the No. 1 overall player in the country, according to On3 and the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. Michigan leads the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine.
