They made a few phonebooks updates before releasing the team photo.
We heard about the position changes already and some of the numbers, but for completion's sake:
POSITION CHANGES
- Reece Atteberry: OL->DL
- Kendrick Bell: QB->WR
NUMBER CHANGES
- Roman Wilson: #14 to #1: Special.
- Ja'Den McBurrows: #1 to #18: Behind Amorion?
- Kody Jones: #6 to #14: Interesting in light of...
- Brandyn Hillman: #46 to #6: Was this Kody moving off or Hillman taking it?
- Amir Herring: #56 to #50: Giudice was #56, #50 is more of center #.
- Chibi Anwunah: #95 to #97: Also changing his last name to Hutchinson?
- Liam Groulx: 41->53
- Joshua Luther 44->41
- Brandon Mann 5->46
Also two walk-ons were no longer on the roster:
- RB Jack Konisberg (Fr)
- OL Dan Taraboi (So)

• All position changes are good position changes.
• All number changes are good number changes.

RIP David Jones🙏
A brilliant and iconic musician/songwriter/ entertainer we have ever seen.
August 29th, 2023 at 9:44 PM ^
I really struggle to think of another artist that was as innovative as he was. He put his stamp on so many different generations of music. Absolutely amazing.
August 29th, 2023 at 9:32 PM ^
Love Bowie, remastered music is the best!
August 29th, 2023 at 11:00 PM ^
I saw him in concert three times.
February 1976 Wings Stadium
March 1976 Olympia Stadium
Early 2000's Palace of Auburn Hills
Highlight of the Palace show was "This next song is for all of you Detroit Motherfuckers". Earl Slick then starts playing Panic in Detroit.
Pure rock and roll gold!!
August 30th, 2023 at 4:31 PM ^
I saw him at Olympia in 1976
August 29th, 2023 at 7:13 PM ^
Man, that's a LOT of white shirts at the top.
August 29th, 2023 at 5:58 PM ^
I had not heard anything about those position changes. Interesting. I thought Atteberry was on the 2 deep for the interior OL. I thought wrong, apparently.
By the way Seth, where exactly were these position changes reported? You said you'd heard of them already, but from where?
August 29th, 2023 at 6:17 PM ^
Coaches mentioned them in their pressers this week.
August 29th, 2023 at 8:52 PM ^
I didn’t know you were allowed to post if it wasn’t on the front page! Stay in your lane Bro! Just kidding. You’re the best!
August 29th, 2023 at 9:43 PM ^
Hey Seth, hope all is well for your son, et al.
If Atteberry makes a good play and tackle, can Attaboy Atteberry become a meme?
August 29th, 2023 at 6:18 PM ^
The Atteberry news confuses me.
August 29th, 2023 at 6:24 PM ^
He was previously an OL but now he is a DL. ;-)
August 29th, 2023 at 6:26 PM ^
Yeah, it's almost impossible to imagine he is any higher than 3rd string on the DL while it appeared he was in good shape to be 2nd string on the OL.
Was this his choice or the coaches? Was he actually not 2nd string on the OL? Inquiring minds want to know!
August 29th, 2023 at 9:56 PM ^
Could simply be the coaching staff seeing more potential of him in DL.
August 29th, 2023 at 6:42 PM ^
That's why we have Seth!
August 30th, 2023 at 3:42 AM ^
Could be (in order of most likely in my opinion)
1. He's buried for now, so why not just try, and if chaos happens, you have a player who can play either OL or DL.
2. Attebery asked for it
3. Coaches see a bigger need at DT
4. Coaches think he's never going to play OL, so let's move him
From previous presser comments, I don't think (4) is likely at all, my guess is they're just giving a talented player every chance to see the field.
August 29th, 2023 at 6:19 PM ^
Jack Konisberg is Joan Lunden's son.
August 29th, 2023 at 7:00 PM ^
The article says it's actually spelled Konigsberg which, according to my impeccable understanding of German, is directly translated as "Burger King". The dude was a walking NCAA violation...
August 29th, 2023 at 7:12 PM ^
Is he related to Woody Allen? Konigsberg was Allen's actual name. Not that he would admit to it.
August 29th, 2023 at 8:03 PM ^
He is now Jack Kaliningrad. Neither burgers nor kings are allowed in the Soviet Union or the NCAA.
August 29th, 2023 at 6:37 PM ^
Old guy in the white shirt all the way to the left? He's wearing a big smile; it's good to see him happy. 👍
August 29th, 2023 at 6:51 PM ^
Curious: I don't think I see Mimi Bolden-Morris in the photo. Is she not back this season?
August 29th, 2023 at 7:08 PM ^
Google suggests that she joined the William and Mary women's basketball program this summer as director of basketball operations.
August 29th, 2023 at 7:14 PM ^
Thanks. That's what I get for using a non-Google search engine, I guess.
August 30th, 2023 at 7:26 AM ^
non-Google search engine
I don't understand.. what is this 1999 and you're still using Yahoo! and Alta Vista?
August 29th, 2023 at 7:15 PM ^
Nice. Good for her.
August 29th, 2023 at 7:44 PM ^
Veeeery interesting regarding Attebery. I know he wasn't going to start this year but I thought I remember hearing about him being someone who would be fighting for that #2 spot at center, possibly duking it out with Crippen or Raheem Anderson, and having a chance to get real playing time next year. Maybe I was wrong.
In any case, I don't see him getting much playing time on the DL this year, but there will be some natural attrition there next season with Jenkins moving on, possibly McGregor, and maybe Harbaugh just really likes what he knows he already has coming back on the OL next season.
Besides, Harbaugh has a track record for finding success in guys with position switches at Michigan. This may prove to be the best move for Atteberry to have a shot at the league.
Who knows? I certainly don't. In any case best of luck to him!
August 30th, 2023 at 7:24 AM ^
Harbaugh has a track record for finding success in guys with position switches at Michigan.
I'd also add Stanford and Richard Sherman to that list. That position switch (WR to CB) seemed to turn out pretty OK too.
August 29th, 2023 at 8:05 PM ^
I was hoping that Liam Groulx would add a vowel or drop a consonant or something...
August 29th, 2023 at 8:45 PM ^
With a name like that he probably has no love for the English.
August 29th, 2023 at 9:38 PM ^
We need to be careful, this could spark a 116 year war.
August 29th, 2023 at 9:54 PM ^
Wowww
August 30th, 2023 at 7:39 AM ^
Is anyone surprised that Kendrick Bell was moved to receiver? Here's to Ronnie being football's version of Mo and Kendrick being Franz.
August 30th, 2023 at 3:41 PM ^
those who stay will get to sit in the front row
