| | Player Profile | Mike Hart - Running Back
College: Michigan
|
| Strengths | Very productive 4-year starter who does everything well; great power for his size; adept at bouncing runs outside and getting out of traffic; has an extra gear when being chased in the open field; outstanding hands--almost never fumbles and catches everything near him; very good blocker, uses his leverage well; sets up his runs well and shows great patience and understanding of the field; outstanding character--very intelligent student and charismatic leader who makes those around him better.
|
| Weaknesses | Hart is very small even for small backs (listed at 5’9” but closer to 5’7”); has major tread on the tires as a 4-year workhorse, and he rarely makes it through games without missing time due to minor injuries--he missed at least 2 drives in a string of 17 out of 20 games--although he will play through pain; lacks elite speed but is hard to catch due to his small size in the open field.
