Brian Kelly and Joe Sloana recent trip to Michigan yield positive as the highly sought-after quarterback is considering…
Brian Kelly and the LSU football staff created a seismic impact in college football recruiting when they secured a commitment from five-star quarterback Bryce Underwood in early January.
Underwood, the No. 1 overall player in the 2025 class, has become a program-defining prospect for the Tigers. Despite his commitment, LSU is not letting up in their pursuit of Underwood’s services. Brian Kelly and Joe Sloan made a recent trip to Michigan to meet with the highly sought-after quarterback.
LSU’s success in the 2025 recruiting cycle doesn’t stop with Underwood. The Bayou Bengals have attained elite status, with Underwood joining Harlem Berry (No. 1 RB in America) and Dakorien Moore (No. 1 WR in America) in the class. This trio of five-star, No. 1 prospects at their positions is expected to have a lasting impact on the program.
Bryce Underwood’s commitment is particularly significant, as the 6-foot-3, 210-pounder is considered one of the top prospects of all time. LSU invested considerable effort in recruiting him, setting the stage for his commitment after multiple visits to Baton Rouge in 2023.
Prior to the onset of the recruiting Dead Period on Monday, LSU is ensuring one final visit with Underwood. Despite keeping his recruitment discreet, Underwood’s actions, including four unofficial visits to the South with his family, speak volumes about his interest.
Quarterbacks coach Joe Sloan has played a crucial role in the recruitment process, extending a warm welcome on multiple occasions. After a compelling effort from the Bayou Bengals, LSU has secured his commitment, maintaining momentum with another trip to Michigan.
While the Underwood Sweepstakes will continue until he officially signs in December, LSU has secured a verbal pledge from one of the most highly touted recruits in history. Additionally, the Tigers recently secured a commitment from Harlem Berry, the No. 1 running back in America, further enhancing the team’s future prospects.
Frank Wilson’s recruiting prowess once again shines as he secures top talent in the Bayou State. Harlem Berry’s commitment, following visits to LSU during game days, adds to the team’s depth at running back.
With the additions of Underwood, Berry, and Moore, LSU’s 2025 recruiting class has soared to the top spot in the cycle, promising a bright future for the Tigers.
