Vic Hall attended Gretna High School where he played football, baseball and basketball. He started for his team as a freshman in 2001 and recorded 14 touchdown passes and a combined 1,546 rushing and passing yards. As a sophomore, he recorded 2,184 passing yards, 20 passing touchdowns, 1,045 rushing yards, and 12 rushing touchdowns. During his junior year, he set a Virginia state record by recording 4,434 total offensive yards, which included 2,769 passing and 1,665 rushing yards. He led his team, Gretna, which set a Virginia High School League (VHSL) record in the 1990s for 43 straight losses, to a 14–0 record and the Group A state championship. Hall also had 31 passing touchdowns and 25 rushing touchdowns for a total of 56 touchdowns, the second-highest in state history at that time. As a senior, he broke the state record he set when he recorded 4,852 offensive yards. That season, Hall recorded 165 completions on 259 attempts, 2,851 passing yards, 38 passing touchdowns, 174 carries, 1,982 rushing yards, and 26 rushing touchdowns. He again led his team to the state championship and a 14–0 record in his senior year. Hall was named a first-team all-state quarterback three times and a SuperPrep All-American.College career Hall chose to attend the University of Virginia. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in anthropology, and continued to pursue graduate studies while exhausting his college eligibility. He sat out the 2005 season as a redshirt. In 2006, head coach Al Groh moved Hall to cornerback, a position that lacked depth and for which Hall was suited with his athleticism and size. Nevertheless, it was an unusual decision considering Hall's record-setting interscholastic career as a quarterback. That year, Hall saw action in all 12 games as a reserve cornerback and on special teams as an outside gunner on punts. He recorded 13 tackles, including seven in punt coverage. In 2007, Hall started in all 13 games as a cornerback and again played on special teams, including as a holder and return specialist. He led the team's cornerbacks in tackles. Hall recorded 58 tackles, three broken-up passes, and one interception. He compiled 230 yards on punt returns and 33 yards on kickoff returns. Against Pittsburgh, he returned punts for 22 and 45 yards, each of which set up Virginia touchdowns on the subsequent possession. He also scored a touchdown on a fake field goal attempt. For his performance in that game, Hall was named the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) Specialist of the Week. Hall was named the team captain for the 2008 season and started in 11 games as a cornerback and one as a quarterback, and also handled punt and kick return and holding duties. Hall was the starting quarterback for the season's final game against Virginia Tech. He recorded 59 tackles and two interceptions on defense. As a quarterback, he accumulated one pass attempt, 109 rushing yards, and two rushing touchdowns. In 2009, head coach Al Groh hired Gregg Brandon as the offensive coordinator for the new spread offensive, which made Vic Hall the starting quarterback for the season. In the first game vs. William and Mary, Vic Hall was benched for Jameel Sewell who was the starting quarterback in 2007. After that, Al Groh moved Vic Hall back to cornerback, and then wide receiver where he was very successful. He was also the starting punt returner but was benched vs. William and Mary also. He recovered his starting return job vs. Boston College when he returned a 58-yard punt back for a touchdown, but it was called back for a penalty, and he kept the job for the rest of the season.Professional careerChicago Bears Hall was signed by the Chicago Bears as an undrafted free agent on April 26, 2010, with the intent to convert him to slot receiver.

With it, he tied and broke the Arena Football League record for interceptions in a single season.
