Brentwood Academy football adds Oakland transfer TT Hill to now loaded lineup
A fourth dynamic high school football skill player has transferred to Brentwood Academy, bolstering its receiving corps for five-star quarterback George MacIntyre.
And this one is coming from a Nashville area program.
Tamari "T.T." Hill, who played a prominent part in Oakland's Class 6A state championship run as a sophomore, has enrolled at the Williamson County private school, Brentwood Academy first-year coach Jacob Gill confirmed to The Tennessean on Saturday.
Hill, a 5-foot-10, 165-pounder, has offers including Georgia Tech, Memphis, Miami (Ohio) and Vanderbilt.
Hill, who played at receiver and running back for the Patriots, caught 21 passes for 421 yard and three TDs in 2022. He also had 78 carries for 621 yards with nine rushing TDs. Hill also played on special teams for Oakland and finished with 1,278 all-purpose yards.
"We have always loved T.T. at Oakland," Oakland coach Kevin Creasy wrote in a text message. "He's leaving here with some great memories and we wish him well in all his future endeavors."
Brentwood Academy just missed reaching the TSSAA Division II-AAA state championship game when Baylor tackled a player a yard short of the end zone to preserve a 44-39 win in the semifinals. Baylor went on to win the state championship game.
Oakland has won the past three Class 6A championships.
Brentwood Academy has also added sophomore wide receiver Shavar Young Jr., freshman Kesean Bowman and sophomore wide receiver Easton Jointer via transfer since the end of the school year. Young transferred from Knoxville Webb and has more than 20 offers including Florida, Georgia, Ole Miss and Tennessee. Bowman had originally planned on being at Knoxville Catholic. And Jointer played at South Warren (Kentucky) as a freshman.
