DAYTONA BEACH, FLORIDA- Rodney Hill was undoubtedly one of the top linebackers around the eastern coast of the Sunshine State last season. 

Hill’s play landed him plenty of interest when he was at Flagler Palm Coast. Now playing at Mainland, who was the Class 3S state runner-ups, Hill is slated to be taking the Buccaneers to new heights. He can do so knowing where he will be playing after his high school days. 

Mainland (Florida) junior linebacker Rodney Hill announced Sunday afternoon via Twitter that he is committing to the Green Wave. The defensive dynamo is a 3-star rated prospect according to 247Sports and also had offers on the table from Iowa State, Tennessee, UCF and Wake Forest. 

Hill last season for the Bulldogs was everywhere, racking up 125 tackles, 14 for loss, five sacks and an interception. The linebacker also had offers from Delaware, Eastern Michigan, Florida Atlantic, Georgia Southern, UMass, Temple and USF.
