Jumbo Elliott and Jamie Morris were on the phone last week chatting away as they typically do four, five times a week, their conversation, as usual, drifting from topic to topic.
Elliott, the former Michigan offensive lineman, and Morris, the former Wolverines running back, have a deep bond. They’re both East Coast guys, Morris from Massachusetts and Elliott from Long Island, and they’re forever connected from their playing days in Ann Arbor.
Last week's call took an unexpected turn.
