Florida State-to-Florida A&M transfer running back Rodney Hill re-enters NCAA Transfer Portal

Florida State Seminoles running back Rodney Hill (29) dodges LSU Tiger defenders as he makes his way down the field on Sunday, Sept. 3, 2023.

Rodney Hill won’t be suiting up for the Florida A&M football team after all.

The former Florida State running back, who transferred across the railroad tracks to join the Rattlers, has re-entered the NCAA Transfer Portal.

On3 Transfer Portal Reporter Pete Nakos announced Hill’s entry on Monday.

The spring transfer portal window for undergraduate students is from April 15-30. Graduate students can enter the portal whenever they want.

Hill, a redshirt sophomore from Statesboro, Georgia, originally signed with FAMU in December but de-committed after former Rattlers head coach Willie Simmons departed to become Duke’s running backs coach last January.

Yes,my advising was wrong but thank God for Favor❤️! Everything is okay.

After de-committing from the Rattlers, Hill announced he committed to the Miami Hurricanes.

However, new FAMU head coach James Colzie III convinced Hill to return to the team and was in the process of helping the redshirt sophomore register for classes during a January on-campus visit.

FAMU practiced 14 times during the spring, concluding with last Saturday’s annual Orange and Green Game. Hill did not practice with the team during the spring season.

Hill, a former three-star prospect by 247Sports in the 2022 class, enters the transfer portal with 77 carries for 334 yards and two touchdowns, all with the FSU Seminoles.
