Michigan football had few holes on its 2023-24 roster to begin with.

Now it seems to have one fewer. The Wolverines added former Louisville kicker James Turner to the roster via the transfer portal on Friday. Turner, a senior from Saline, made the announcement on social media.

Turner was the Cardinals' primary kicker the past three seasons, going 47-for-59 (79.6%) across 42 career games. As a junior, Turner set a program record for field goal percentage (90.9%), going 20-for-22 to also tie the school record for made field goals in a season.

Turner was named an All-ACC honorable mention last season as well as 2020, when he went 13-for-15.
