Mike Hart took over the reigns in the second half during Michigan’s win over UNLV. With Jay Harbaugh serving the first-half due to Jim Harbaugh’s suspension, Hart made history becoming the first African American head coach in Michigan history:
“It truly is a great honor – being that this is my university. I played here, this place changed my life and to have the opportunity to say I was the first African American head (football) coach here is huge.” 〽️ #GoBlue pic.twitter.com/l8ikocmCMQ

"Hopefully we see more African American coaches in college football. We need more. I will be one of those one day."
