Hines, 6'2" 215, finished a decorated college career at Middle Tennessee State in 2003 where his 4,296 yards of total offense ranks sixth all-time.

Throughout his career, Hines excelled against top-ranked opponents, including a 2003 performance against eighth-ranked Georgia in which he accounted for 212 of the Red Raiders' 240 yards of total offense.
