For the first several weeks of the 2025 season, Bryce Underwood was being projected as the first overall pick in the 2028 NFL draft

He really was extremely impressive for a true freshman that was still 17 at the beginning of fall camp. He spent the last third of the season going backwards, and of course tonight was a total disaster other than the last play. I still believe he can be a great college quarterback but the light needs to go on sooner or later, preferably sooner against the Sooners.

Back to the board

- He's good and maybe potentially great when everything is on platform, but that's not how to be a successful QB. I'm sure he shreds in practice even with "simulated" rushes - that he knows aren't real. - By jjwalker September 6, 2026 at 01:49:56 AM

    - Think about a guy like Drew Brees. How was he one of the greatest QBs of all time? Yes he was deadly accurate and his arm strength issues were overblown (at least when he was younger)... - By jjwalker September 6, 2026 at 02:03:54 AM
      - Drew Brees’s NFL career benefitted immensely from playing half his games in domes (I’ll show the stats above) nm - By mgaelster September 6, 2026 at 08:49:19 AM
      - This is my worry with Bryce. The processing speed just doesn't seem to be there. - By Bender September 6, 2026 at 02:17:56 AM
- It took Arch 3 years. A guy like Joe Milton 4 years. Vince Young 3 years. He is getting paid so he should perform but is so fucking young still.* - By MasterBates September 6, 2026 at 01:41:06 AM
  - Dylan Raiola still hasn't figured it out. * - By UMdad September 6, 2026 at 02:18:33 AM
    - And countless others.* - By jjwalker September 6, 2026 at 03:50:19 AM
  - Had he gone to LSU, where would he be now? I’m not sure elite programs should care about landing top QB recruits. * - By plug September 6, 2026 at 01:45:52 AM
    - Michigan’s QB recruiting has sucked mostly since JH got hired. Some 4 star guys that sucked until JJ, then it was back to nothing.* - By MasterBates September 6, 2026 at 01:49:48 AM
      - more and more elite programs transfer in their QBs. Let someone else deal with growing pains. * - By plug September 6, 2026 at 01:55:05 AM
        
        Michigan’s offense is pesticide for elite transfers. They want to play in the NFL and want to throw for 3500 yards.* - By MasterBates September 6, 2026 at 02:00:31 AM
        
        Michigan absolutely could transfer in an elite QB. They have the money, the exposure, and now the receivers. But you have to promise PT. * - By plug September 6, 2026 at 02:38:59 AM
        
        They have to show it first. They aren’t paying millions with Bryce still there.* - By MasterBates September 6, 2026 at 02:41:03 AM
