After the initial reports, many Wolverines fans praised Barstool Sports president Dave Portnoy for securing the No. 1 recruit in the country for the maize and blue due to his outspoken desire to handle the NIL for a transfer quarterback, but that doesn’t speak to what actually happened.

Billionaire Larry Ellison is linked to helping fund the NIL deal that led to Bryce Underwood flipping his recruitment from LSU to the University of Michigan.

Dave Portnoy is telling his side of the story. The Barstool Sports founder went on the brand's "College Football Show" and provided insight on the process of Bryce Underwood flipping his commitment from LSU to Michigan.
