A former On3 Consensus five-star recruit, Travis Hunter idolized Deion Sanders growing up. Hunter models his game and the way he carries himself both on and off the field much in the same way Prime Time did when he starred at Florida State and in the NFL. “I bring a whole lot of intensity and talent,” Hunter said. “I want to be the next Deion Sanders. And I’m going to live up to it.” He did exactly that through the early part of his college career. Playing for Coach Prime at Jackson State, Hunter was a finalist for the Jerry Rice Award, given to the top freshman player in FCS football. Hunter then followed Sanders to Colorado, where he took the college football world by storm. Despite missing three games with an injury in the 2023 season, Hunter won the Paul Hornung Award as the nation's most versatile player and was named first-team All-American – after playing a total of 1,102 snaps. "This kid is a flat-out playmaker," Sanders said ahead of the 2024 season. “He is something that we have not seen in college football. Charles Woodson was him, Champ Bailey was him. I mean, these guys were unbelievable. But that guy right there, he’s the best receiver in college football and he’s the best cornerback in college football. That’s the truth.”
