Darius Hill was Ball State’s touchdown machine at tight end
In the 2007 season, Darius Hill was one of Ball State’s most dangerous red-zone weapons, finishing with 65 catches for 926 yards and 11 touchdowns, while earning first-team All-MAC and John Mackey semifinalist recognition. He was a big-bodied mismatch at 6-6, with elite ball skills, strong hands, and a knack for winning downfield and in scoring territory. Ball State’s record book still puts him at the top of the program’s career touchdowns list with 31, which tells you this wasn’t just production — it was sustained, high-impact production. If you value a tight end who can stress defenses vertically and finish drives, Hill fits the bill.
