Portnoy hinted at his involvement in securing Underwood’s commitment, claiming a part in the process.

In a video shared on Thursday night, Portnoy expressed his excitement, proclaiming Underwood as the top recruit in the country and emphasizing Michigan’s pursuit of excellence in recruiting and on the field.

Underwood’s decision to choose Michigan over LSU could have a significant impact on college football, with Portnoy exuding confidence in the Wolverines’ future success.
