Rutgers football offers four-star quarterback Bryce Jay Underwood, a member of the class of 2025

Rutgers football sent out an offer this week to Bryce Jay Underwood.

Bryce Jay Underwood pulled in an offer from Rutgers football this week, putting the Scarlet Knights in a steep competition for one of the best quarterback prospects in the nation.

A four-star recruit out of Belleville High School (Belleville, MI), Underwood is the No. 3 player in the nation in the 247Sports Composite. Last season, he was named the MaxPreps National Sophomore of the Year.

In 2022, Underwood passed for 2,762 yards and 37 touchdowns; he also rushed for 632 yards rushing and eight touchdowns.

Rutgers football joins a recruitment that includes the likes of Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisville, LSU, Maryland, Miami, Michigan, Missouri, Notre Dame and Ohio State among others.

Underwood tweeted about the offer on Sunday night:

 

Rutgers is beginning to recruit Michigan more extensively. In the class of 2024, they landed four-star running back Gabriel Winowich, the second commit in this current recruiting class. They are also doing well with linebacker Montele Johnson, a three-star from Michigan.

Freshman get’s Notre Dame offer after impressive first high school season

He did what as a freshman?

The most important position on the football field is the quarterback and finding a great one is always the focus of many teams recruiting goals. Well, the Irish are ahead of boat on one of the most recent offers, as they verbally gave Michigan quarterback Bryce Jay Underwood an offer.

Underwood just recently finished his freshman year at Bellwood High School, but it was a wildly successful one. He threw for 3,000-yards and 39-touchdowns while leading them to a state title. That kind of success as a freshman will get plenty of eyes on a recruit, especially one that was named MaxPreps National Freshman of the Year.

It is super early in Underwood’s career but he surely has the attention of the Irish and most likely other schools will soon be trying to get in contact with the rising sophomore.
