Just before first-year Michigan receivers coach Ron Bellamy hit send on a get-to-know-you group text to his players, he called the veteran, Ronnie Bell.
Bell has led the team in receiving the last two seasons and is the leader of the position room. Bellamy, who just led West Bloomfield High to a state championship in his 11th season as head coach, joined Jim Harbaugh’s staff at Michigan, where he played receiver, last month.
Bellamy, appearing this week on the “In the Trenches” podcast with host Jon Jansen, shared that conversation he had with Bell.
