Bryce Underwood (2025 5* QB) set to visit Colorado against USC

If Underwood becomes enamored with Prime and decides to go there, we weren't going to get him anyway. All we can do is continue to do what we've been doing

I watched Bryce blow out my kid’s team last Thursday. He threw a 50-yard rope on a dime to the right side of the field for a touchdown while moving to his left.

In short, he’s good.

Prime ain't gonna be coaching the Buffs in 2025/26. 

For the kind of season Michigan is possibly about to have (assuming they don't implode on themselves), if Underwood still decides not to come here after all of that.....then I'm honestly not sure how much more could've been done to bring him into the fold. 

Michigan has been playing its best football in years. They are beating OSU, winning the conference, making the CFP, putting players into the league, running NFL schemes that will prepare you for playing in the league. So if after all of that, Underwood still doesn't come, then you just have to shrug your shoulders and be content with the fact that nothing more could've realistically been done. 

Deion is a hot name right now, and there is a ton of hype surrounding him and his team. I don't know a ton about his offenses, but it sure looks like he puts the ball in his QB's hands and says "I don't want you to manage the game, I want you to win it." That has to be a very alluring factor. 

If JJ balls out like we think he will Michigan won’t have any problem recruiting top flight QBs.

It sucks that UM may lose out on Moore and Underwood, but that’s recruiting. Michigan will get theirs.

Colorado has a high profile coach who also happens to be black and who likes to throw the ball around a lot. I can definitely see the appeal for Underwood.

Whatever happens I hope the kid does well just as I hope Dante Moore does well. It’s good for the state to see Michiganders flourish.

It would be great for Michigan if he chose to play for UM but he needs to follow his heart.  That said I'm not sure that's a great game for him to visit.. if it's Colorado he's interested in.

I have the same feeling as others here do - that TCU is not great this year and they still almost won that game.  The passing yards from Sanders was "meh" for me, knowing TCU's weakness on D is pass coverage. 

Then again, Lincoln Riley does seem to have the early, pre-2021-Harbaugh-itis in "bigger games," though, so we'll see.  I still think back to that USC/Utah game last year.  Sanders may out-coach him in their upcoming game - it might be another shootout.  It'll definitely be the spectacle, and Sanders would love to secure Underwood and toss him the bag.

He isn't coming and he never was. 

I am not sure if this is a popular opinion or not, but Coach Prime is probably going to be our biggest threat at this point and I don't blame anyone for wanting to play for him.  He knows the game, he has massive amounts of connections at all levels of the sport, and you will either become confident when playing for him or watch your teammates pass you on the field because they have believed in his process.  Coach Prime still has an uphill battle at Colorado, but he shocked a lot of people on Saturday and I don't think he's done surprising the NCAA world.

Colorado has all the buzz in the world so I wouldn't be surprised if he suddenly decided to go there. I hope all the work and relationships that Michigan has built pulls through in the end. He looks really special and it would be amazing to get another NFL level QB on campus after JJ. 

No disrespect to Davis who seems very good as well, but I'm not sure if he'll be a 1st NFL pick even if he's great in college which I think he can be.

Yep, I feared this. Deion will be a top recruiter.

Coach Prime isn't going to be at Colorado in two years, so I think we're fine.

I think we need to pump the breaks on Colorado. It was one game. Still much better than last year but the season is long.

USC by 50 should help this situation 

That's not great news 

Come here or don't. Next. Don't want mercenaries; not saying he is but what's best for him may not line up with UM and then you wish him well.

Hopefully USC blows them out

Sam has been dropping not so subtle hints to companies in and around Michigan to get rolling on this kid regarding NIL.  The clock is ticking and there are only a few months left until he commits, IIRC.  

I kinda know how this movie ends.  Hope I'm wrong...

CU Buffs, Coach Prime recruiting with “different level of energy” than rivals Nebraska, CSU Rams, experts say.
