The Underwood family played this perfectly from a business perspective.

They leveraged LSU to get the most out of Michigan until the last few days. The most difficult part of this negotiation play for Bryce and the Underwood family was staying disciplined enough to act like Bryce was staying with LSU.

When the Underwood family felt like they got the most out of Michigan, Bryce flipped.

From a business/negotiation perspective they played it perfectly.

Ive noticed after following recruiting for 25 years. When the player/family does stuff like this, the player ends up being a bust.

I dunno. Being deceptive isn't negotiating.

I believe this too. These things have their way of working themselves out.

You sound like you were taught Christian morals growing up. You have to realize most of the people in the world don’t have the same morals as you.

Moscona reporting it was $12M (no idea how true), and that we weren’t even at $8M.

I heard from a sauce, Michigan upped the offer even more to get him to sign. Even more than the 10.

Michigan was desperate lmao

This is why college football has become a joke. Selfish players and their families along with ADs ruining what is great sports.

Screw the NFL and let them make and pay for their own minor league.

I think he's going to be very good provided he isn't coached by a moron.
