Again, the Hart offense depends primarily on Taden Littleford for the win. Based on the lack luster start, Littleford should be the offensive player of the year. The Herringtons are going to have to face the music that their manufactured QB (coached by brother, Dean) is the worst in recent years. Giving Zach Johnson the reins last year was a mistake, and that lead to a 2019 season that will be one of the worst seasons in history. The attempt to generate $ for Dean Herrington’s QB academy leaving the Hart program holding the bag of failure. Nepotism and politics at its finest. Hart will finish 3-7 on the season.
