Former Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh will no longer serve as honorary captain for the Wolverines' season opener, as he continues to prepare for his first season as Los Angeles Chargers coach.

Wolverines coach Sherrone Moore said Tuesday that Harbaugh called Monday to say he won't be attending Michigan's Aug. 31 game against Fresno State, when the team will celebrate its national championship at Michigan Stadium.
