Now a high school football coach, Ron Bellamy had just turned 18 when he played in the 2000 Orange Bowl.
For West Bloomfield High School football coach Ron Bellamy, Michigan's first game "back in the spotlight" against Alabama Saturday comes with memories attached to it. Bellamy, a Michigan graduate and a five-year National Football League veteran, was a member of one of only three Wolverines teams to face Alabama, although both programs are among college football's oldest and most storied. On Jan. 1, 2000, Bellamy had just turned 18 at the end of his freshman season when he started for Michigan in the FedEx Orange Bowl at Miami.
