ANN ARBOR, Mich. –

Chase Herbstreit informed St. Xavier football coach Steve Specht of his decision on Sunday.

Now Chase Herbstreit will join one of the best college football teams in the country with the Wolverines, who won the national championship last season.

This year, however, Michigan’s star power has shown signs of waning. As of Dec. 8, the school has been ranked outside the AP poll among the top 25 college football teams.

In the same poll, rival Ohio State is ranked sixth. Despite this, Michigan still managed to defeat Ohio State in November during the two teams’ annual matchup, leading to a brawl between the players after the game.

Earlier this week, Kirk Herbstreit went to X to congratulate his son on completing his senior year of high school football at St. Xavier.

“Congratulations on an amazing Sr. year, Chase. I’m so proud of you!” Kirk Herbstreit wrote.

Chase Herbstreit will join Bryce Underwood as the Wolverines’ second recruiting quarterback next year. Underwood is currently the nation’s top high school football quarterback and plays for Belleville High School in Michigan. Underwood was originally scheduled to play at the collegiate level for Louisiana State University next year before changing his mind at the last minute in November.
