Overview

• Four-star 2027 quarterback Peter Bourque reclassified for added maturity and chose Michigan over Penn State, Georgia, Oregon and Texas A&M.
• Bourque is the third verbal pledge in Michigan’s 2027 class and marks the program’s fourth consecutive cycle landing a quarterback ranked among the top 10 nationally.
• Scouts laud his 6-foot-4 frame, live arm and accuracy on the run but caution that he has yet to face elite high-school competition in New England.
• Offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey’s proven development of QBs such as JJ McCarthy and Drake Maye was a decisive factor in Bourque’s commitment.
• The Wolverines are closing in on naming Bryce Underwood their Week 1 starter for 2025, solidifying a clear succession plan at quarterback.
