A history of how QBs who were the No. 1 overall recruit fared in college

It has been a monumental recruiting week for the Michigan Wolverines, flipping five-star in-state quarterback and No. 1 overall player, Bryce Underwood. His commitment has sent ripples across college football as more and more top recruits are now being rumored to join him in Ann Arbor.

But if there’s one position to land a premium player at for a program in need of a boost, that position is quarterback.
