Tia Hill sees plenty of similarities between her sons.

“Their personalities are pretty much the same,” she said. “They're kind of low key. I've even asked them, ‘Do y'all get excited about anything? Show me some excitement.'”

But whether Justice and Dax Hill's calm demeanors end up on the same college football team remains to be seen. Oklahoma State, where Justice stars as the Cowboys' running back, is among the six schools Dax — a five-star safety at Tulsa's Booker T. Washington — is considering.

If Dax chooses to go to OSU, his brother won't have anything to do with that decision. The program itself, not the familial connections, has put the Cowboys in his top six.
