Colorado Buffaloes two-way star Travis Hunter is showing why he was the nation’s top ranked recruit in high school. After winning SWAC Freshman of the Year at Jackson State last season, he followed head coach Deion Sanders to Boulder, CO, and was immediately viewed as one of the impact players for the new-look Buffs. And just a few weeks into the 2023 campaign, he is already being thrown into Heisman Trophy conversations.
