He briefly played for the Class D minor league baseball Graceville Oilers of the Alabama–Florida League but was cut from the team at the start of spring training. Hemphill then played semi-pro baseball before switching to focus on college and writing. He graduated from Alabama Polytechnic Institute (later renamed Auburn University), working on the school newspaper, ''The Plainsman'', earning a bachelor's degree in 1959.〔Emerson, Bo.
