Jamil Hines brings old-school downhill toughness to Northern Arizona
Jamil Hines is a compact, physical runner whose identity has long been built on burst, toughness, and multi-sport athleticism; in his Northern Arizona profile, he was noted as a track standout with a 11.0-second 100-meter best, and in 2009 he showed efficiency on limited work with 51 rushing yards on 14 carries (3.6 per carry) across four games. His appeal is less about flash than fit: he looks like a disciplined, hard-nosed back who can deliver value through effort, speed, and reliability.
