As a sophomore, Hubbs averaged 7.2 points and 2.9 rebounds per game under coach Donnie Tyndall. He increased his averages to 10.6 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game as a junior but missed some time with knee surgery.[3] As a senior at Tennessee, Hubbs averaged 13.7 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game and was named to the All-SEC Second Team.
