DMN isn’t the only outlet raving about Hill, the 6-2, 225-pound linebacker who has anchored the Denton Ryan defense for the last two seasons. Hill is ranked as a 5-star recruit according to 247Sports, which has him ranked as the No. 15 prospect in the nation and the No. 2 overall high school player in the state of Texas. His 247 scouting report lists Hill as an “athletic, physical, violent off-ball linebacker.”
Hill had offers from Texas, Alabama, Oklahoma and USC, among others.

Hill is the top recruit nabbed by Jimbo Fisher and the Aggies thus far in the 2023 recruiting class. He’s the first 5-star from the class that A&M has landed, though they have gotten commitments from a handful of 4-star recruits, including South Oak Cliff’s Jayvon Thomas.
