You found it your home for the best content on your favorite team the fighting tigers of LSU do us a favor subscribe to the channel leave your comments below and be sure smash that Like Saturday was huge uh what what a time to be alive uh I’m sure you’ve heard by now that LSU landed a commitment from uh the number one quarterback and number one player in the country for the class of 2025 Bryce Underwood out of Michigan he made the announcement uh signing or
An announcement at his school there in Michigan where he pulled out a hat and an LSU Jersey a number 19 LSU Underwood Jersey and laid it there on uh on the table and with that skyrocketed LSU’s class up to number two in the country now coincidentally behind only Notre Dame
But the big difference is that Notre Dame has far more prospects committed right now LSU with their eight commitments including three five stars uh the number one quarterback number one receiver number one running back in the country for 2025 when I say what a time to be alive I want to lend some
Perspective because I I can say this out loud and we all know it to be true but sometimes when you add color and description it just pops even more and I’ve said it a lot this year as have many others but LSU was a quarterback graveyard A Wasteland for a
Decade and only when Joe burro came here did it it turned things around in in dramatic fashion now where you’ve had two Heisman Trophy winners in a span of four years and you just landed a commitment from the number one player in the country but here’s what I
Mean after LSU signed Ryan Peru in the class of 2005 who was a five star and the number one quarterback in the country here’s the list of quarterbacks that you signed out of high school since peralo you ready take a walk with me down memory lane Jared Lee Jordan Jefferson Chris
Garrett Russell Shepard Zack Lee Steven Rivers Jeremy liins Anthony Jennings Hayden reick Brandon Harris Justin McMillan Lindsey Scott LEL naris miles Brennan Peter Parish TJ Finley Max Johnson Garrett nsme Walker Howard Ricky Collins and now Colin Hurley y’ I’m try to be nice because all them is
Young people and they try really hard but they ain’t a lot of good on that list you know what I mean uh you needed Zack murger Danny etling Joe burrow and Jaden Daniels for transfers to salvage any type of offensive culture and then obviously the Kaboom was with Joe burrow and now Jaden
Daniels has won the program’s uh third Heisman Trophy second in four years ain’t a lot of good good but now you’re talking about a program that has won two Heisman Trophies at the quarterback position just led the country in total offense and had a a Transcendent type season under Jaden
Daniels you’ve got Colin Hurley signed who was a really impressive young Prospect and you just got a commitment from the number one player in the country a consensus composite number one player in the country who also happens to play the quarterback position only once in LSU’s history only once in LSU’s
History have they never signed the number one player in the country that was Leonard forette 10 years ago a running back from New Orleans forette was a Transcendent player who had an amazing LSU career and was a must get because we all saw Leonard forette from the time he was in
The eth grade and he was right there at St OG and you had Frank Wilson on staff and you had to sign Leonard forette and you did this kid’s from Michigan he ain’t got nothing to do with LSU or Louisiana or the Bayou or anything so how about an amazing hat tip
At a boy congratulations to Brian Kelly and to Joe Sloan primarily his recruiter for getting this done I mean what an incredible yo moment for this program and I know because I heard it this weekend I heard it I heard it yeah Matt well he still got a year
Before he signs he could decommit sure he could Matt even if he does sign transfer portal probably leave after a year might don’t care enjoy this moment enjoy the fact that the number one player in the country a quarterback from Michigan is committed to your fighting tigers of LSU enjoy that the
Cash what that means of having him in this class will it work out maybe maybe not don’t know that’s not the point the point is the future of your quarterback position looks really really good in 24 you’ve got nus Meyer who’s been waiting his turn AJ Swan back up with experience
Ricky Collins is a red shirt freshman and Colin Hurley coming in behind them in 2025 nus could come back could go pro AJ Swan could come back could transfer Ricky Collins could come back or transfer Colin Hurley could be a red shirt freshman and Bryce Underwood will
Be on campus then after that who knows yes the quarterback position more than any other is transient it is fluid guys don’t stay they look for an opportunity to go somewhere but the reality is you can never I’ll say this again big bold underline underscore you can never never
Ever ever never ever have too much experience too much talent at the most important position in organiz team sports if you have a chance to get the number one consensus number one player in the country to your campus you do it you celebrate it and you use that to
Build up an even better class and I’ll remind you this there are two times prior where LSU had a movement what feels like this one is 2001 2011 where you built incredible signing classes on guys who all decided they were going to do it together 2001 that
Was the team that Nick Sabin got his first full class at LSU a bunch of dudes from Louisiana who were like we’re going to build a championship we’re doing it in our home state Michael Clayton Marcus Spears Maris Hill that class in two thou in 2001 Andrew Whitworth Rudy nicewonger
That class which was the Cornerstone of the 03 Championship 2011 they call themselves the fam Odell Jarvis lyo Collins freak John son Kenny hilard Trey Turner that crew and they all wanted to do it together they stayed together to build a giant class look at what this
Class is right now Harlem Berry Dorian Moore now you add Bryce Underwood of course we know what kelen Moses at U High has said he he’s told Brian Kelly he’s going to be the ring leader of this class and build it go get the best players in the country sometimes those
Dudes commit together because they want to stay together and play together and try to win together I’m not worried about what it’s going to look like in in two or 3 or four years from now but in this moment that’s massive to have that guy in your class with 11 months to go
Before Signing Day not just because he’s in your class because what that means from a p Piper effect of bringing other great players here look you will sort out the quarterback position in the future year by year you will assess what happens in the portal who stays who goes all that sort
Of stuff year to year and you have to do that year-to year look six months ago nobody was thinking AJ Swan was going to be an LSU Tiger but the situation arose and necessitated it so that’s where you’re at and you’ll do it again every spring and every fall and every summer
And every winter based on what happens in that given year but LSU just got a commitment from the consensus number one player in the country a quarterback from Michigan yes the same program that went a decade with having Jared Lee Jordan Jefferson Chris Garrett Russell Shepard Zack Lee Steven
Rivers Jeremy ligins Anthony Jennings Hayden reck Brandon Harris Justin McMillan Lindsey Scott LEL naris miles Brennan Peter Parish TJ Finley Max Johnson Garrett nus Meer Walker Howard Ricky Collins Colin Hurley you think I’m not going to sit to do a backflip because Bryce Underwoods committed LSU you damn right I am and I
Love everything this kid had to say as well I love what his family has had to say as well his dad gave an interview to 247 and he said quote I’m sorry this was from Bryce Underwood the program itself is very historical a lot of great players went in and out of Louisiana
State University the food is amazing a lot of real people there A lot of people from Michigan a lot of things we can relate to Underwood’s father in the same interview said Brian Kelly did an amazing job putting the staff together and everyone knows their role like we
Told them it’s not the buildings everyone has beautiful buildings it’s the people how people approach you how they take their time with you their emotion their demeanor they’re blatantly honest and give you the real on their expectations for their team and young men coming into the program Bryce Underwood’s mother in this
Interview Beverly talked about school being a priority and the two programs that our son is going to pursue psychology and sports medicine I mean LSU did an incredible job recruiting Bryce the entire family and getting a Transcendent type player committed to this class you can sit there and you can
Beman the the culture in college football with transfer portal and guys leaving and whatever the case may be in nil but on this day you better celebrate having that dude because it has literally happened once before in the history of the program where you got the number one player in the country and
That was a running back from St OG this is a quarterback from Michigan that’s not to diminish forette at all greatest physical Runner that LSU’s ever had in this program Bryce Underwood could could be the best quarterback that LSU’s ever had in this program we’ll see might
Sound like blasphemy now but it’s going to be a fun journey to see how it gets there Bryce Underwood becomes the eighth commit for LSU’s 2025 class what a time to be a lot hey thanks so much for watching please leave your comments I love to interact and be sure

Happy- but it is 2025- NIL from a texas, aggies etc possibility- concerns- but I will enjoy it for now- GO TIGAHS!!
We got some good QB’s in the future starting next year
Jayden, Malik and BTJ made sure that LSU will have offensive skill players lining up to play for LSU while Kelly is the coach
Damn why you shitting on Nuss
Matt, how seriously should we tiger fans be worried about BK going to Michigan now that Harbaugh won a Natty
💥👍🙏
Has LSU ever had the #1 recruiting class? TBH, I don't pay much attention to recruiting, but I have recently. Just curious. Geaux Tigahs!
Stop calling them old qb names I'm getting a headache all over again 😂😂😂😂
And he committed without an OC on staff.
Fair play to BK – I’ll admit I’ve been hard on him – “Hat’s off” Brian, take a bow……
(but don’t be getting too cocky plz) – stay focused, hungry, keen, “on it”. Geaux Tigers!
Yay !!! And I went to a 5 star restaurant this weekend but it really wasn't that good….
Surprised that we got him considering people spreading baseless rumors Kelly was going to Michigan.
Hopefully this class doesn’t lose any of these early verbal commits. We could have a top 3 class
I fail to get excited any longer in this transfer portal era… if all these highly rated players dont find immediate path to the field, they will leave and if they do find it, another highly rated player will leave. Its a wash
Most of them were 4 star players. So its a coaching issue amd not the players.
Update: Michigan just won National Title!!!
What happen if Kelly went to Michigan and took Underwood with him (food for thought)
Your stupid laugh is just “stupid”
Nothing funny did so wtf is wrong w u
What about the defense Matt
I agree Matt, I had to tell someone the same statement, he said "he'll flip", 1st comment after Bryce made his commitment, and I said "enjoy the moment", when that time comes we'll address it then. Let Bryce, his family, and LSU fans enjoy this moment. People are scared of what's about to happen at LSU! Frfr
