The Michigan quarterback received the best birthday present imaginable when the five-star running back committed to be his teammate next year.
"I'd love to announce my commitment and the future of my academic career to the University of Michigan," Hiter said.
Underwood, who joined the Wolverines this spring, is already making waves in Ann Arbor, positioning himself to be the starting QB as a true freshman. Alongside his impressive on-field work, he was putting in the necessary effort to land Hiter's commitment.
Hiter chose the Wolverines over a gauntlet of powerhouse programs, including the Tennessee Volunteers, Ohio State Buckeyes, and Georgia Bulldogs, all of which were vying for his commitment.
