A three-year starting wide receiver for the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga, Hill led the Mocs and was second in the league in receiving in 1998, earning first-team All-Southern Conference honors. He had 53 receptions for 683 yards and two scores. He also returned 12 kickoffs for 279 yards. He finished his career with 100 catches for 1,329 yards.
During his freshman year, his new colleague, UA football strength and conditioning coach Corey Edmond, was the Mocs' strength coach.
