Michigan football has brought home one of the most storied players in program history.
The Wolverines announced Wednesday night that they have hired all-time leading rusher Mike Hart as the team's running backs coach.
Hart, who had been the running backs coach at Indiana, played at Michigan from 2004-07. A two-time finalist for the Doak Walker Award who also finished fifth in the 2006 Heisman Trophy voting, Hart owns the school records for rushing yardage (5,040) and carries (1,015) while ranking third in touchdowns (41).
“Michigan has always held a special place in my heart,” Hart said in a statement released by the school.
