At 48 years old, Madre Hill has this physical status:
Hill played collegiately for the Arkansas Razorbacks from 1994–98, missing the 1996 and 1997 seasons due to tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in each knee.
As a freshman, Hill ran for 351 yards on 74 carries (4.7 avg.), and tied a school record with a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against the LSU Tigers.
In 1995, Hill was named 1st team All-Southeastern Conference (SEC) by the SEC coaches and the Associated press, setting single game school records for rushing attempts (45 against Auburn) and rushing touchdowns (6 against South Carolina) and the school's single season record for rushing yards (1387) and rushing attempts (307). His records for season rushing yards and attempts stood until surpassed by Darren McFadden in 2006 and 2007, respectively. Hill led the Razorbacks to the SEC Championship Game that season, where they were defeated by Florida 34–3. Hill left the game after suffering his first knee injury on the opening drive. He tried to return later in the game but was unable to run the ball. It was later determined that Hill had suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament. The 1995 Hogs finished 8–5 after losing to North Carolina in the Carquest Bowl, without Hill.
In 1998, Hill came back from a two-year absence and helped the Razorbacks to a 9–3 record and a first place tie for the SEC West Division title with the Mississippi State Bulldogs, in head coach Houston Nutt's first season (Hill's coach from 1994 through 1997 was Danny Ford). Hill rushed for 669 yards (4.2 avg.) and seven touchdown. Arkansas would lose to a Michigan team led by Tom Brady in the Florida Citrus Bowl on January 1, 1999.
Hill was named to the Arkansas Razorbacks All-Decade Team for the 1990s, and finished his Razorback career with 2,407 yards rushing, tenth place all-time at the university. His 25 rushing touchdowns are sixth in school history, and he is also eleventh in 100-yard rushing games, with eight. Local artist Nancy Couch was commissioned by then-athletic director Frank Broyles to paint two Razorback football players running behind a herd of charging razorbacks. For the players Houston Nutt chose Brandon Burlsworth and Madre Hill. The original 8" X 16" oil on canvas painting of Hill running behind Burlsworth currently hangs in the Broyles Athletic Center at the University of Arkansas. Only 1500 numbered originals were printed.
Professional career
Hill was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the seventh round of the 1999 NFL Draft. Selected with the first pick of the seventh round, Hill was drafted ahead of players such as Chris Akins and future Pro Bowler Donald Driver. Hill played two seasons with the Browns, playing five games as a kick returner in 1999, returning 8 kicks for 137 yards. Hill spent the 2000 season on injured reserve due to a neck injury.
In 2001, Hill played in NFL Europe for the Berlin Thunder, and was the team's leading rusher with 388 yards on 69 carries (5.6 avg.). He also caught 15 passes for 295 yards (19.7 avg.), returned 7 kicks for 98 yards and scored four touchdowns (2 rushing, 2 receiving). The Thunder finished with a 6–4 record and won World Bowl IX that season, with Hill leading the Thunder in rushing with 31 yards on 8 attempts and catching 4 passes for 35 yards.
Hill's performance with the Berlin Thunder earned him a free agent contract with the San Diego Chargers in 2001. He was signed to fill in during LaDainian Tomlinson's holdout, but was released after appearing in three pre-season games once Tomlinson signed with the team. Hill's final professional season was with the Oakland Raiders in 2002, where he was part of the active roster for the Raiders in Super Bowl XXXVII, which they lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Post-playing career
After playing for the Raiders, Madre Hill returned to the University of Arkansas, where he served as a graduate assistant to head football coach Houston Nutt in 2004. In 2005, Hill was hired by Steve Spurrier at the University of South Carolina as running backs coach. The Gamecocks finished the 2005 season with a 7–5 record and were invited to the Independence Bowl. Hill coached running backs at Florida International University for head coach Don Strock during the 2006 season. In 2011 Hill founded RazorClean Inc., a management, supply, and contracting company.
In September 2015, Hill was named by the Southeastern Conference as one of fifteen SEC Football Legends, and was honored with rest of the class before 2015 SEC Championship Game on December 5, 2015. Hill was one of nine former University of Arkansas student-athletes who were inducted as members of the 2017 class of the University of Arkansas Sports Hall of Honor that September. Hill was also inducted into the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame in 2019. He is generally considered the best running back of the 1990s for the Razorbacks, and one of the greatest high school running backs in Arkansas high school football history.
