49ERS Star Ronnie Bell Unveils Jim Harbaugh’s Biggest Regret to Weigh in on Chargers Switch

The abruptness of Jim Harbaugh breaking ties with Michigan and shaking hands with the LA Chargers was a shock to the public. However, after days of Harbaugh leaving to chase his Super Bowl dream, several players, including those from Harbaugh’s former teams Wolverines and 49ers, revealed they were well aware of his unfulfilled dream.

Ronnie Bell is one such player who inherits the legacy of Jim Harbaugh from his Michigan days. Now, as he takes up the responsibility of 49ers’ WR in their second Super Bowl appearance after the Niners lost to the Ravens in 2020, he confesses about knowing Jim Harbaugh ending up in the NFL. ” I feel like it was just a matter of time,” he said. The reason for it is exactly what everyone is assuming: a Super Bowl on his shelf. “Two years ago, when everyone was like he might go, he might go. He sat down with the whole team and told us that one thing that kills him up is that he’s never won a Super Bowl,” admitted Bell.

With his switch finally being executed seamlessly after a chaotic 2023 season, all these players for whom Harbaugh is nothing less than an inspiration, are happy for him to have a shot at his dream. “So we always knew like, eventually he would go back. So I’m happy for Coach and I’m excited to see what he does for the Chargers,” excitedly said Bell. Well, what Harbaugh might do for the Chargers will only be uncovered in the regular season, but his fervent passion for the Bowl is crystal clear with his relentless recruiting at the Chargers.

Jim Harbaugh’s heavy redesigning at the Chargers

Harbaugh taking away the gems of Michigan’s staff Jesse Minter and Ben Herbert is no secret. Along with him, he has taken over Ravens’ Joe Hortiz as the Chargers General Manager. With Harbaugh wanting to fill up the positions as soon as possible, Joe Hortiz has stepped into the recruiting race as well beside Harbaugh. In his introductory speech as the GM, Hortiz touched upon his looking into the ‘talented’ people at the organization to revamp their scouting team as well.

Along with this, Harbaugh and Hortiz have almost finalized their next assistant general manager as Chad Alexander, the Ravens’ director of player personnel, per SNYtv’s Conor J Hughes’ report. This would be the second recruit from the Ravens, who snatched Harbaugh’s Lombardi right from his hands in 2013. Hence, this season, he has the best setup, with their former staff with them, to aid them to the same Super Bowl Ring.
