6-1, 215 pounds
Memphis, Tenn. (Memphis University School)
Other top offers
Ole Miss, Mississippi State, LSU, Missouri
Status
Hart has visited Knoxville multiple times since receiving a Tennessee offer in the summer of 2014, and it’s shaping up to be another UT/Ole Miss battle for the Memphis product, with a few other schools still in the picture. Hart was high school teammates with incoming Vol freshmen Drew Richmond and (walk-on) MaLeik Gatewood, giving UT a bit of a personal touch, while Ole Miss has the distance factor in its favor.

How He Fits
Hart generally lines up right in the middle of the MUS defense, but his size is a bit more indicative of an outside linebacker, so wherever he ends up will need to find the right fit for him. He’s slightly undersized for a major prospect, but he flies around the field, making tackles in the backfield, getting in passing lanes and getting to the quarterback when asked to help in the pass rush.
