2016 FOOTBALL RECRUITING ISSUE state championship game, got out of bounds to stop the clock to give us a chance. He's not only intelligent, but the fastest guy on our team." • Rivals.com Midwest Recruit- ing Analyst Josh Helmholdt: "He's a true cover corner, much the same way [Michigan rising senior] Jourdan Lewis was coming out of high school. He's a guy who can easily flip his hips and has speed to stay with top-flight wide receivers. He gets a little handsy — which is something he has to work on and learn to rely on his skills and not hold wide receivers — but he has the skill set to be able to be a lock- down cover corner without having to hold. I expect he eventually gets there." • Tom Lemming Of Prep Football Report: "He's a good ball player. He came out to my event and is one of the best defensive players in Michi- gan. He can turn and run with receiv- ers, he plays an aggressive game. A lot of times watching him, he's right on the nose of receivers, and high school kids don't do that unless they're really confident. He backs it up with very good athletic ability and production." Hill was named the U.S. Army Lockheed Martin Air Defender of the Year, which is pre- sented annually to the nation's top defensive back. PHOTO COURTESY RIVALS.COM
