Notre Dame won’t be just handing over their punter duties to freshman Bryce McPherson after Jay Bramblett‘s departure for LSU. McPherson will have competition for the role in 2022 by graduate-transfer Jon Sot of Harvard.
Sot will graduate from Harvard this spring and then transfer to Notre Dame for the 2022 season. He was voted first-team all Ivy League in 2018 and 2019.
Sot averaged 39.7 yards per punt this past season with a long of 67 yards. He shared the following statement on Twitter upon announcing his decision to attend Notre Dame:
“I would like to thank my teammates, coaches, and the Harvard community for a great 4 years and 3 seasons in Crimson.
I am so fortunate to have been pushed to my full potential day in and day out, and to have developed relationships with some of the most gifted people in the world.
After graduating Harvard University this May, I will be attending the University of Notre Dame as a graduate student transfer for my last season of college football, I can’t wait to get to South Bend and chase a National Championship. All glory is and always will be to God. Go Irish!”
