In 2014, punter Justin Vogel transferred from Florida to Miami. Two years later, another player at the same position is following a similar path.
On Twitter Wednesday, Jack Spicer announced that he has decided to transfer out of the Gators football program. Not only that, but Spicer announced that he will be joining Vogel by transferring into the Hurricanes program.@Andrew_Ferrelli pic.twitter.com/gHJsaKWvJ4

Spicer, who didn’t try punting until the summer before his senior season in high school, was a true freshman with the Gators last season who didn’t see the field.
While Spicer will ostensibly compete with Vogel to be the Hurricanes’ punter, the former is likely looking at the future as the latter is a senior with a solid track record. Last season, Vogel’s 42.5 yards per punt average was sixth in the ACC.
