  • Hickman came to the University of Tennessee from Johnson City, Tennessee. Hickman was a guard for the Tennessee Volunteers football team from 1929 to 1931. He was named to Grantland Rice's All-American football team in 1931 on the heels of his performance in the New York University (NYU) charity game at Yankee Stadium. Hickman was also named to the All-Southern team in 1931, joining teammate Gene McEver. Coach Robert Neyland held Hickman in high regard. "When one (football writer) said Hickman was 'the best guard the South ever produced,' Coach General Bob Neyland snarled, 'Herman Hickman is the greatest guard football has ever known.'"
