During spring ball, Wyoming head coach Jay Sawvel expressed uncertainty about whether his starting punter was on campus or not. However, the situation became clear on Saturday when Jack Culbreath, a transfer punter from VMI (Virginia Military Institute), announced his commitment to the University of Wyoming on X (formerly known as Twitter). Culbreath, standing at an impressive six feet, four inches, and weighing 235 pounds, possesses the stature of an NFL punter. With one year of eligibility remaining, this graduate adds a significant presence to the University of Wyoming football team.

Culbreath punted for four years (2020-2023), completing 199 punts for 8,541 yards. Jack’s longest punt was 76 yards at home on October 21st, 2023, against Samford. Culbreath was named the FedEx Ground FCS Special Teams player of the week in September 2023, in addition to numerous first-team and player-of-the-week titles and was named a two-time All-American. Jack was also recognized by Phil Steel as a conference first-team punter for 2023.
