Former Memphis offensive lineman Xavier Hill committed to Colorado out of the NCAA transfer portal. He made it official on Instagram.

Hill began his career at LSU before transferring to Memphis after a few seasons. He’ll now finish up with the Buffaloes.

While at Memphis last season, Hill was named First-Team All-AAC. That was the highlight of his two years with the Tigers.

As a member of the Class of 2020, Hill was a three-star recruit out of Olive Branch (Miss.) High, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He was the No. 12 overall prospect in the state, the No. 27 offensive lineman in the class and the No. 462 overall prospect in the class.

Hill is the latest addition to Colorado out of the transfer portal. However, Colorado lost a piece recently. Running back Isaiah Augustave is no longer with the program.

Augustave arrived at CU last season from Arkansas and immediately became a key part of the rushing attack. He led the program with 384 rushing yards and four touchdowns as Colorado used a pass-heavy offense en route to an 8-4 overall record and Alamo Bowl appearance. He also added nine receptions for 53 yards.

Prior to his arrival in Boulder, Augustave spent one year at Arkansas as a freshman. He appeared in 11 games and made one start, totaling 202 yards and a touchdown on 35 carries. He also had 101 yards against FIU that year.

Isaiah Augustave played high school football at Naples (Fla.), where he was a four-star prospect. He was the No. 298 overall player and No. 19-ranked running back from the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
