Michigan coach Mike Hart carted off the field after sideline collapse

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Michigan football running back coach Mike Hart collapsed on the sideline during the first quarter of Michigan's game against Indiana.

With 4:54 left in the quarter, just after Indiana scored a touchdown to tie the game, 7-7, and Michigan's special teams unit was ready to head on the field Hart, standing near midfield, suddenly collapsed and the team gathered around him.

Everybody on the field, on both sidelines, took a knee as medical personnel tended to Hart and made a barricade around him holding towels up to block the view from the sideline. After about 10 minutes, Hart was brought onto a stretcher and placed on a cart which took him off the field.
