A few short years ago, Michigan football had a real asset at the punter position. Thrust into the starting role in 2018 after having lost it in the first place back in 2017, Will Hart was among the best in the nation.
But his 2019 was a small step backward and Hart lost his job completely in 2020, with Brad Robbins reprising the role he stole away in Week 4 in 2017.
With the Wolverines retaining Robbins while bringing in five-star punter/kicker Tommy Doman Jr. — rated by Kornblue Kicking as the No. 1 specialist in the nation — Hart has chosen to look for greener pastures, playing out the remainder of his eligibility elsewhere.
I am forever thankful for The University of Michigan and Michigan Football for providing me with such a great experience. I am now seeking a graduate transfer opportunity for my final year of eligibility! #GoBlue @_Mike_McCabe pic.twitter.com/RMAH9sy4dy

Hart averaged 46.98 yards per punt in 2018, but in his brief showing with just four punts in 2020, he averaged just 37.75 yards per attempt.
