He played as an offensive tackle for the Aggies for two years where he was an All-Southwest Conference pick, second-team All-American, and GTE Scholar Athlete.
Goodwin was picked up by the Miami Dolphins in 1999 while he was a restricted free agent by then head coach, Jimmy Johnson.
A high point in his career came in 2000 when Merril Hoge dubbed Goodwin as "the best blocking tight end in the league" in one of his ESPN commentaries.
Goodwin's charity and volunteer work have included Habitat For Humanity, numerous visits to the children's hospitals in the Metropolitan area, the Cystic Fibrosis foundation in Miami, and Special Olympics.
Locals may hear his voice before Texas A&M Football games on fan website TexAgs' radio show on Thursdays at 9:00 AM for "The Hunter Goodwin Hour."
