Way back in 2008, Kevin Hart, a two-star offensive lineman prospect out of Nevada, held a press conference to announce he was choosing Cal over Oregon. It turned out that none of it was true: Hart hadn't been recruited by anyone. At first he claimed that he had been scammed by someone posing as a recruiter, but soon admitted that was a lie too. It was funny at first, but just kind of sad by the end. (Even lying liar Mitch Albom pooped out something on how Hart reflects society, or something.)

Four years later, Hart is back on the recruiting trail. After playing two years at a community college near his home, he's taken a few campus tours this month, and reportedly has narrowed his choices down to Division II schools Missouri Western and Concordia St. Paul. We have only Hart's word to go on, but we very much hope it's true this time. I'm not sure our hearts can take some poor wretch making up a recruiting visit to Missouri Western.
