He started started 36 straight games (the most by a player under Barry Switzer). He also contributed to a 42-5-1 overall record and the 1985 national championship. In 1999, he was selected to the OU second-team All-Century team as one of the Top 100 Players in school History, following a stellar college career, which saw him selected to All-American teams in 1986 and 1987.[4] He was team captain for the 1987 Championship team and was selected All-Big Eight three times.[5][6]

Professional career

Hutson was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the third round (67th overall) of the 1988 NFL Draft, after dropping because of his limitations in pass-blocking. Two weeks into training camp he suffered a herniated disc that required back surgery to remove it.[7] He was placed on the injured reserve list on August 31.

After trying to regain his playing form, he was eventually waived on June 1, 1989 and forced into early retirement.[8]

Coaching career

Hutson began coaching with his alma mater in 1990 as a graduate assistant. He coached with Houston Nutt at Murray State University, Boise State University and the University of Arkansas. While with the Razorbacks, Hutson was selected Southeastern Conference Special Teams Coach of the Year.

His coaching travels next took Hutson to the University of Tulsa as the offensive line coach from 2000 to 2002. Following Tulsa, Hutson came to Eastern Illinois University and spent four seasons as assistant head coach, offensive coordinator and offensive line coach. In the 2006 season, he jumped in as acting head coach when Bob Spoo was sidelined after surgery. The team finished with an 8–5 season record, 7–1 in the Ohio Valley Conference, winning a co-championship with UT Martin.

During Hutson's tenure at Eastern Illinois, the team won two conference titles and went to the NCAA Division I playoff twice. The team he led as interim head coach lost in the first round of the 2006 playoffs, 24–13, to Illinois State.

Hutson joined the Tulane University staff in 2007 as offensive line coach. He was named interim coach for Tulane's remaining six games following the resignation of Bob Toledo.

On February 11, 2012 Hutson was hired by the Oakland Raiders to be the tight ends coach under head coach Dennis Allen."
