Mike Hart’s Roommate Tries to Avoid Spotlight

12:15 am News

The Michigan Daily published an article on Cornerback Morgan Trent; who happens to be Mike Hart’s roommate.

Here is a snippet that talks about their relationship and living arrangement.

If you’re garnering attention at the cornerback position, it’s probably for the wrong reasons. Trent found that out the hard way last season.

But for someone who prefers to step aside from the limelight, Trent has made an interesting housing decision.

Michigan’s most highly praised player since Charles Woodson is Trent’s roommate - Heisman Trophy candidate Mike Hart.

“I don’t want to be in the spotlight,” Trent said. “I don’t need to be in the spotlight. It’s really about this team. It’s about getting this team together, getting this team to win games.”

Though Hart may have the same team-centric goals in mind, he does it while being in the spotlight. The mix of two different personalities may make for an odd-couple environment, but ultimately, it balances the two.

“It’s weird because I room with Mike, and he’s the hype, I mean, everybody knows Mike,” Trent said. “We’re the exact opposite, so I get enough from just dealing with him.”

Living with someone who Trent said loves talking so much that he does it in his sleep has given Trent a stronger backbone. If Hart jokingly jaws at Trent, he’ll get it right back. The same goes for talkative opposing receivers.

So when the two aren’t fighting about whether Hart could or couldn’t be a successful cornerback if he wanted (”Not fast enough. Too small, too,” according to Trent), Trent’s ready to play ball and not worry about the limelight.
