Players' comments suggest the Wolverines have unofficially settled their quarterback battle, with the prized freshman poised to lead Michigan in Week 1

Bryce Underwood was the top rated 2025 prospect because of his physical tools, but his maturity is what is setting him apart, according to Michigan coaches:

Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore will announce the starting quarterback on August 25th. While true freshman Bryce Underwood is the presumptive starter, Moore wants to see more consistency and leadership. The competition includes Underwood, Jadyn Davis, and Jake Garcia, while Mikey Keene is still recovering from injury.
