"This offer really means a lot," Hart told 247Sports. "Coach (Jordan) Paopao has been super nice through this process and I really had a great time there. I have a very strong interest in that school and I will probably be back again sometime for a second visit. The thing that stood out the most is, when I first got there, coach Paopao took me up the elevator and when the doors opened the whole coaching staff was there getting hype and yelling and that was really cool I thought."
Hart is an athletic pass-catcher who consistently finds open space up the seam, with the ability to break free from linebackers and the hand-eye coordination to come down with the ball. He runs fluidly in and out of his breaks, can be a mismatch problem over the middle and an asset in the red zone, where he can go up for the ball in traffic.
Elsewhere on the recruiting front, Hart knows he'll make a return trip to Notre Dame, which is a heavy player in his recruitment up to this point. Another in-season trip has yet to be determined but Hart knows he'd like to get back on the road to continue assessing some of the options on the table.
Hart is familiar with the process, as his brother Alex plays linebacker at New Mexico and he had another brother, Nick, who played tight end at Minnesota.
"I know that me and my family are going back to Notre Dame during the season for a game day visit because my brother plays against them, so I am super excited for that," Hart said. "We are still deciding on the second game day visit to either the Ohio State versus Penn State or to USC for the game against UCLA. My plan right now is to make a commitment next spring, so I've got time to continue looking at everything."
