The Albany, Ga., native led the Dougherty Trojans to the 1998 GHSA Class AAA state title. After playing two seasons at Troy University, he transferred to Albany State.

During the 2003 season, Joyner quarterbacked the Rams in the Pioneer Bowl to a 52-30 victory over the Fayetteville State Broncos.

In 2004, Joyner led the Rams to an 11-0 regular season finish and the deepest playoff run when the Rams appeared in the national quarterfinals.

During his two-year career as a Ram, Joyner passed for 4,090 yards and 29 touchdowns and rushed for another 1,041 yards and 16 touchdowns, racking up 5,131 yards of total offense.
