Michigan spring football has been canceled for the foreseeable future due to coronavirus concerns, but the 2020 season is on ... for now. Here are the top five reasons to be optimistic about this year's campaign.

The Receiving Corps: This crew got a boost when Nico Collins announced he’d return for his senior season. He was the most talented of the trio that also included Tarik Black (transfer) and Donovan Peoples-Jones (NFL Draft), and by most accounts he was even the hardest worker and had the best attitude of the three. He could be in line for a monster senior season.

Junior Ronnie Bell dropped a few balls last year, but he was the Wolverines’ best route runner and most explosive option after the catch. His work ethic and willingness to block had head coach Jim Harbaugh praising “I’d take a team full of Ronnie Bells” last year, and he provides the perfect complement to Collins. The duo ranked 1-2 on the team in receiving last year after they combined for 85 catches, which gained 1,487 yards (45.6 percent of the squad’s receiving yardage) and eight scores.
