Underwood’s Future in Question | Detroit News

Michigan’s head coach Kyle Whittingham is sending a clear message to starting QB Bryce Underwood: his job isn’t guaranteed, and he must dramatically improve fast. Despite delivering a game-winning TD in a 13-12 nail-biter against Western Michigan, Underwood’s overall play—marked by freshman-year mistakes and shaky decision-making—has raised red flags ahead of a brutal upcoming matchup. Whittingham stressed high expectations for the whole team but made it unmistakably clear that Underwood’s development is paramount. With a ranked opponent looming this Saturday, the pressure mounts—and backup Tommy Carr, a talented QB from a football royalty background, is ready to take over if needed. Underwood admits he needs to step up, knowing his future at the helm hangs in the balance. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
