Hall took part in the University’s efforts on Veterans Day to recognize those who have served.

On Veterans Day, Ahmard Hall returned to Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, the place where he revived a football career after serving four years in the military. Dressed in a plain white t-shirt and sporting a beard that has lengthened since his playing days at Texas, Hall strode confidently to midfield to observe the coin toss as one of the team's honorary captains.

After leaving behind active duty in 2003, Hall returned to the football field for the first time since he graduated high school.
