The 6-foot-4 play-caller is ranked as the top recruit in the class and made quite a national splash in 2023, leading the Lions to a 13-1 record while holding firm in the USA TODAY Sports Super 25 all but one week of the season.
While a lot can change from now until the signing period next yearâas made evident during the 2023 rush of flips and watchful eyes on the transfer portalâUnderwoodâs choice is as monumental for LSU as it is eye-opening for the in-state perennial program and current No.1 team Michigan Wolverines.

Underwood becomes the first No.1-ranked QB to choose LSU, adding to a distinguished group the past few years that includes Heisman Trophy winners Joe Burrow and Jayden Daniels.Â
