Just a few days before kicking off the 2023 season, Michigan assistants Ron Bellamy and Chris Partridge spoke to the media for the first time this offseason. For Bellamy, it's about finding a reliable third and fourth receiver behind Cornelius Johnson and Roman Wilson. For much of camp, Tyler Morris was in the No. 3 spot, but he's apparently "working through something" as game No. 1 approaches. Bellamy talked about a trio of freshmen and also Darrius Clemons when explaining who might be asked to step up.
Partridge spoke about his linebacker room but it was what he said about Jim Harbaugh that seemed to draw the most attention. After being here three years ago, Partridge says that now, this is officially Jim's team. The players have all taken on Harbaugh's personality and that's the reason for the A+ culture and two straight seasons of success. With the 2023 campaign literally just around the corner, Partridge can't wait to be standing on the sidelines again now that the team is ready for another big step.
