He was / is getting $4M a year & as noted, has no buyout, it's all in annual payments.


He is getting 3m per. LSU offered 1.5m last year. Are they going to offer 3 after the shitty season he had? No. Is he going to take a pay cut for no reason? No. He's also from Michigan. So do people think hes gonna take a pay cut and leave his home state when he doesnt have to? That would be amazing.

If we can get him for 2-3 million a year, I say make it happen.

He’s getting 4 million right now, we would have to go to 5 to get him to leave. I don’t think he’s worth that

Depends on who they hire. Guarantee he wouldn't have stuck around just for the money at Michigan all 4 years if they would've continued with the same crappy offense they had with Moore.

Underwood doesn't really fit on LSU's board. The QB room doesn't have bodies. You're going to pay Underwood $4 MM and then get who else? No QB is going to come knowing they'll be a backup. You need multiple. We will have 0 QBs on roster once MVB transfers, it's like people don't realize that.

Somebody is coming to be the starter no matter what and probably not for cheap.

I wouldn’t pay millions for Underwood who has already scorned us when Lane has proven that he can make chicken salad out of chicken shite.
Now Imagine letting him make chicken cordon bleu out of a range free chicken

But you also need a backup. And with Underwood being a true sophomore, it makes it almost impossible to find that backup.

BK to Michigan with him sniping Sloan with ties to Underwood to keep him. Make it happen Michigan.

When I see Bryce, I don’t see him as the Lane type of QB do you?



I don't see him as much of a QB at all.

don't think Lane has had the luxury of a top shelf talent like Underwood. He's been having to bargain bin shop for undersized QB's with flaws. Bryce also ran for over 300 yards this year.


Are you talking about Jaxon Dart and Matt Corral who were both top 100 overall and top 10 QBs?

Chambliss was an outlier in Lane QBs, he normally has a pass first type of QB with good enough legs to make shite happen.



huh? his whole offense is predicated on a QB that is a run threat

If he was smart he'd go the route of guys like dante moore. Nothin beats learning on the job but the other route is proving to be better development wise. Moore at UCLA was almost going to be a washout from underdevelopment. Went sat a year in a better situation now he can be 1st on the board 26 or 27

When Underwood left LSU at the altar. LSU did the Defense a solid with his proposed NIL.

I hope LSU throws this hypothetical "Underwood NIL" at:

A new O-line,
Legit starters at WR,
A body or better at RB
A Kiffen QB at least 2 of them.

He’s good - he demolished Power four teams in the road like Jayden did as a true freshman struggled against ou but did make massive strides in 2nd half and yeah that Lane School can make him jd5 in a year or two - He is special and he boys with Harlem!!
