In 2008, he returned a punt for a touchdown in his collegiate debut against Kansas on his first touch of the game.

This play became known in FIU as “The Hilton Heave”. He was responsible for 12 touchdowns in his freshman year, scoring them all in five different ways, the first player in the program to do so (seven touchdown receptions, two rushing touchdowns, one passing touchdown, one punt return, and one kickoff return).

He finished his freshman season ranked third in the nation in all-purpose yardage per game, with an average of 180.25 yards per contest and was consequently named Sun Belt Freshman Player of the Year.
