Michigan football's Dax Hill called perhaps best cover guy in Big Ten by Don Brown

A year ago, Daxton Hill was just trying to figure it all out.

The former five-star prospect (one of four to sign with Jim Harbaugh at Michigan football) arrived in Ann Arbor with more hype than any other player in his class. The high expectations included Hill immediately finding the field as a true freshman.

And he did. It was just a process.

Hill admitted last October that he dealt with homesickness. And the transition from high school to college proved difficult, as Hill had to learn how to balance football and schoolwork.
