Hill grew up in Santa Barbara, California and attended Santa Barbara High School where he lettered in football and basketball. He was rated a four-star recruit by Rivals[1] and a three-star recruit by 247Sports and ESPN. He committed to play college football at Wisconsin over offers from Kansas State, Nevada and UCLA.[2][3]
Wisconsin
Hill did not play during his true freshman season in 2020 or 2021 and was redshirted.[4] During the 2022 season, he played in only one game where he did not complete any passes.[5]
On October 9, 2022, Hill announced that he would be entering the transfer portal.[6] On December 25, 2022, he announced that he would be transferring to Fordham,[7] but on January 4, 2023, he announced that he would instead be transferring to Iowa.[8][9]
Iowa
During the 2023 season, Hill was named the starting quarterback during Week 5 after Cade McNamara suffered a leg injury during the first quarter and became the heaviest quarterback in Iowa program history.[10][11] He made his career debut as a starting quarterback with six out of 21 completed passing attempts for 110 yards, one touchdown, one interception and a QBR of 2.0. [12][13]
After spring practices in April 2024, Hill announced he would once again be moving on and entered the transfer portal.
