Arkansas Baptist College president Fitz Hill was a full-time football assistant coach for nine seasons at Arkansas (1992--2000) before leaving to be the head coach at San Jose State in 2001. He coached the Spartans four seasons.
His son, Justice, who was seven months old when his father took the San Jose State job, was a driving force for him to get out of coaching. Now a freshman at Little Rock Christian, Justice is a promising point guard for the Warriors in basketball and a quarterback in football.
Hill, 5-11, 160 pounds, had 14 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists in a 74-45 victory over Greenbrier on Tuesday night.
