Cam Brown brings Australia-style boom to Michigan’s punt game
In the 2025 season at UNLV, Cameron Brown averaged 43.8 yards per punt with a long of 71 yards, placed 17 of 46 punts inside the 20, and gave up only three touchbacks, which is exactly why Michigan went after him to steady special teams in 2026[1][2]. He’s a 6-foot-2 Australian specialist with three years of eligibility and was named Michigan’s likely starting punter before Week 1, so the fit is clear: leg strength, field-position value, and room to grow on hang time, which was a noted weakness last season[1][2][3].
