Bryce Underwood wasn’t just another five-star recruit, he was a seismic shift for Michigan football.
When the top quarterback in the nation flipped his commitment from LSU, it wasn’t just a recruiting win, it reset the pecking order in Ann Arbor. Overnight, Underwood became the guy. The buzz, the pressure, the spotlight, it all landed on his shoulders.
Five-star quarterback recruit Bryce Underwood shows his incredible accuracy amid uncertainty about his college future
But that spotlight left someone else in the dark.
Jadyn Davis went from future star to fallback option
Michigan didn’t exactly skimp on Davis. Just last year, the Wolverines shelled out $533K to lock in the blue-chip quarterback. He was supposed to be the successor to J.J. McCarthy. Now? He’s suddenly the “other guy” overshadowed, out-hyped, and maybe even out the door.
According to team insiders, Davis is still competing hard. He’s shown flashes in spring practices and hasn’t backed down from the challenge. But sources close to the program admit: the writing might be on the wall. If Michigan dips into the transfer portal again especially for a younger QB Davis could bolt.
The whispers about his future keep getting louder
EJ Holland of Wolverine Online didn’t hold back. He pointed to Davis‘ mechanical flaws and lack of elite mobility as reasons he may not be the long-term answer. Even with high football IQ and elite training pedigree, it may not be enough when Michigan already has their franchise QB in Underwood.
The situation is further complicated by Michigan’s thin quarterback depth. Davis is one of only two scholarship QBs currently going through spring practices. Losing him would leave the Wolverines exposed-but keeping him on the bench may not be realistic either.
Meanwhile, Underwood’s weight sparks viral attention
As if things couldn’t get weirder, Underwood’s recent public appearance drew unexpected criticism not for his arm, but his build. Viral memes questioned his conditioning after fans noticed he looked heavier than expected. Still, most believe he’ll trim down by fall and silence the chatter with performance.
One thing is clear: Underwood is Michigan’s future. Whether Davis has any place in that picture remains to be seen. In today’s game, patience is rare and so is loyalty when the path to playing time gets blocked.

Škoda, že mi servis odjel na dovolenou, postěžovala si Krejčíková po vyřazení z US Open
„Byl to těžký zápas. Hrála jsem s hráčkou, která je top, daří se jí tu a cítí se zde v pohodě. Škoda, že se mi to dnes nescházelo. Škoda, že mi dnes odjel servis na dovolenou,“ uvedla Krejčíková.„V prvním setu jsem bohužel měla úspěšnost prvního servisu 40 procent. S tím se prostě nedá proti hráčce z top ten hrát. To mě hodně mrzí, ale co se dá dělat,“ podotkla dvojnásobná grandslamová vítězka ve dvouhře.Krejčíková ztratila duel za necelou hodinu a půl.

Sedí jí, že ten míček tady létá hodně nízko a je to tady hodně rychlé. Snažila jsem se to mixovat, jak to šlo, měnit tempo, ale moc mi to nešlo. Bez toho prvního servisu to dnes nebylo hratelné,“ řekla Krejčíková.I přes úterní neúspěch hodnotila […]

Oregon’s Dan Lanning on Oklahoma State’s Mike Gundy NIL Dig: ‘We Spend to Win’
Oklahoma State Cowboys head coach Mike Gundy has provided the No. 6-ranked Oregon Ducks with bulletin board material ahead of their Week 2 matchup in Eugene."We spent around $7 million over the last three years, and I think Oregon spent close to $40 [million] last year alone," Gundy said on his weekly radio show. "That was just one year. Now, I might be off a few million. What I'm saying is they're spending a lot of money. There's some schools that are doing that."Gundy also expressed that there's "chatter" among coaches that out-of-conference scheduling "should be based on the financial situation for each school."Oregon head coach Dan Lanning responded."I've got a ton of respect for Coach Gundy.
