Mike Hart suffered a seizure, according to the Fox broadcast, and wound up on the ground after Indiana made an extra point to tie the score at 7 with 4:57 left in the quarter. Michigan’s players cleared the bench and spread out across the field, many dropping to one knee.
Several Michigan coaches, including head coach Jim Harbaugh, stood nearby as trainers worked on Hart.
Hart was put on a stretcher and carted off the field, but he was moving his head and extremities as Hoosiers coaches came out on the field to check on the former Indiana running backs coach.
Hart left Memorial Stadium for further evaluation at a hospital.
“Mike [Hart] had a medical emergency during the game and he’s in a stable condition,” Harbaugh said in a statement. “He’s going to stay overnight in Bloomington for continued observation. Mike is a strong guy and abundant prayers go his way…it really puts things in perspective.
“At the moment, everybody’s thoughts were on Mike. Mine were and everyone around us was to get him the care that he needed…The most important thing is his health at that point in time.”
Fox reported that Hart reached out to the team at halftime to tell them he was doing well and to give an update on his status.
