Michigan had several in-state targets on campus in late July for the annual BBQ at The Big House, including elite 2027 Harper Woods (Mich.) High athlete Dakota Guerrant .
The barbecue was Guerrant’s seventh visit to Ann Arbor. During the event, he participated in drills that wide receivers coach Ron Bellamy oversaw and reunited with players on the roster.
“The barbecue was great, honestly,” Guerrant told The Wolverine . “They had us work out and then they gave me some cleats for me to work out in. Got to see how Bellamy (could) coach me and stuff like that, coach the rest of the guys. The food put it at the top, for sure.”
Guerrant is garnering a tighter relationship with Bellamy this offseason.
“He’s very technical and straight to the point,” Guerrant said. “He said I catch the ball very easy. Smoothness, stuff like that.”
After picking up a Michigan offer during last year’s spring evaluation period, Guerrant has been back four times since the coaching staff turnover. Now that Sherrone Moore is at the helm, Guerrant is getting to know the former well and has been impressed with the head coach’s ability to connect with prospects and their families.
