It’s sad what these kids do to disrespect another school’s intelligence. We all know he left for money and that’s ok but don’t lie about why.

He isn’t going to Michigan to play school.

So I guess Underwood is committing to staying 4-5 at Michigan years to get a degree, right?

LSU may be 3rd tier education while MI is 1st tier but the $ are all that mattered. This guy has zero intention of going to class let alone graduating from college.

He no doubt left for money but yes, Michigan is a lot better academic school than LSU. Michigan is probably the best academic public school in the nation.

The education was such a deciding factor that he didn’t even give Michigan a sniff until Larry Ellison got involved. I’m sure uncle Larry just explained to him the robust curriculum Michigan had to offer though and that’s what got the deal done.

I didn't really have a problem with Underwood until this.

I know he left for money & I don't have a problem with it. Lying about it to make himself look better is kinda sad though.

And if he was visiting and really into Michigan the whole time, that would matter. When you don’t give Michigan the time of day for your whole recruitment and then a billionaire drops a huge bag and suddenly education was the deciding factor, people are going to roll their eyes at you.

He was committed to LSU for months. It took him and his family ~10 days before signing day to figure out Michigan has a higher 'education' rating than LSU. He's not that smart....

I haven't seen a heel turn like this since Hulk Hogan joined the NWO.

Yes I’m sure lol. He didn’t think much of their coaches or their offense either for 10 months. None of it adds up to any other answer but the most obvious one: he got a financial offer he simply couldn’t refuse.


And that’s ok. He’s already admitted that and everyone knows it. I guess he’s feeling like a whore now and he needs to rationalize his choice.

The robust Michigan curriculum that Larry Ellison chose to not attend, might I add what a joke

Did Underwood actually say this or are we just taking @GeauxTigers7189’s word for it?
