Hart unofficially visited South Bend over the weekend of June 2 and silently committed to the Irish coaching staff during that visit.

He did not hold an offer from Notre Dame coming into the visit, but received one from the coaching staff while on campus.

Hart was the first receiver and 12th player overall to commit to the Irish in the class of 2019.

• Born on Dec. 5, 2000.
• Played both wide receiver and defensive back in high school.
• Also competes in track and field for Good Counsel
•Attended same high school as fifth-year senior Irish center Sam Mustipher.

Expect Hart to redshirt as a freshman unless he earns a role on the Notre Dame special teams.

Hart is one of the most underrated receivers in the country. He is a long, thin and athletic player with a good frame. You can see his toughness on defense and when he goes up for the football, but he will need to get a lot stronger moving forward.

Hart is a good route runner for his age, and his length gives him a wide catching radius. His ball skills are outstanding when he is locked in and focused, but at times he looks like he is thinking about running before he makes the catch, and that is when he can drop a ball or two. Once he gets stronger his ball skills will improve even more. Working to get off the press with better technique is a must.

Hart shows a good initial burst on defense and very good change of direction, traits that don’t show up as much on offense due to the need for improvement with his stance and start. He goes out and plays on defense, but on offense at times he tends to play like he is thinking more than just reacting.

Once he focuses on just playing wide receiver this will get worked out of his game quickly. There are some really impressive athletic traits that jump out on film. Hart ran a 4.19 in the pro shuttle this summer at the Nike Football The Opening Regional in New Jersey, and you can see that quickness and agility on film.

Hart shows good long speed as a wide receiver, and once his start improves he will be a legit home run threat. He leaped 37.5 inches this summer in the vertical jump, which shows lower body explosiveness waiting to be tapped into; combine that with his thin, athletic frame and long speed there is some obvious speed potential there.
