We are starting to see what Big AL has cooking for next year in some number changes that were just announced.
Roy Roundtree will reverse his number from #12 to #21. As you know, #21 is one of the Wolverines Legendary numbers since former Heisman Trophy Winner Desmond Howard wore that number. Last year, Sugar Bowl MVP Junior Hemingway wore #21 as well.
Devin Gardner is also changing and you guessed it, he will move from #7 to #12. Both of these numbers have a long heritage at QB at Michigan. Of course #7 was worn by Rick Leach and #12 was worn by Tom Brady. It seems moving Devin to #12 gives Big Al the flexibility to move Devin to WR for some snaps or play QB if needed.
I don't now the NCAA number rules but I'm guessing #7 is a primary QB number and #12 gives you more flexibility.
- 4 star DB Leon McQuay III and his father visited Ann Arbor for two days this weekend. He is visiting a number of schools and they stopped by Michigan to check out the Wolverines. Leon and his father came away impressed with the visit and Leon has moved the Wolverines up to his top 5. Leon is planning to enroll in January and still wants to visit some other schools. Academics, tradition and best fit are the decision criteria for Leon and his father. Weather and being close to home is not a factor. They are serious about academics and considering schools like Vandy, Duke and Stanford as well. The one thing that seemed to stand out to Leon and his father was the chance to wear former Heisman Trophy winner Charles Woodson's number.
- 4 Star RB Jordan Wilkins is planning on camping at Michigan this summer.
- The Charles Woodson, Steve Hutchinson and Brian Griese Golf Outing this past weekend raised $1.3M for Mott Hospital.

Tom Brady was 10 at Michigan not 12. As for wearing it to play WR, there is not many number rules for positions in college. The only two are offensive linemen can only wear numbers from 50-79 and WR, RBs, and QBs can not wear numbers 50-79
