Former Michigan assistant Vance Bedford highlights top players on Wolverines’ defense through Week 6
Former Michigan defensive back coach Vance Bedford was on the Michigan Insider show with host Sam Webb of 247Sports. Bedford broke down the main players in the secondary for the No. 5 Michigan Wolverines.
Bedford had this to say about the overall performance of the secondary:
“I need to see one more game of Mike Morris. He’s making some individual plays to stand out. Mike Sainristil’s been balling out too. Gemon Green, he’s done a good job. D.J. Turner’s been coming along too.”
