It was just a normal Thursday for West Bloomfield, Michigan 2020 safety Makari Paige, but that didn’t mean everything would be normal for him on that Thursday. In fact, things went from good to great in a matter of moments.
Paige met with his high school football coach — Coach Ron Bellamy — and was then given the news that would make his entire day.
“Coach gave me the great news that day at school,” Paige told Maize n Brew Friday afternoon. “Coach (Chris) Partridge offered (a scholarship).”
Receiving a scholarship from the University of Michigan was a big deal for Makari.
