What were y'all judging him on at first? Everything I have seen has been good.



That is a fair question. Wasn't a big fan of the prime show (me me me) and the stuff Shedeur does (like leaving the game before it's over because they are loosing) and I just assumed TH was grouped in with that. Outside of his Heisman speech, I never heard the guy actually speak.

I’m rooting for him to be the #1 overall pick. Feels like he’s headed to Foxborough or JAX though. Giants, Raiders need QB’s.

he pays for the NIL deals of 10-15 teammates, per Deion Sanders Jr.


I feel like a player paying his teammates is against the NCAA rules somewhere. It would be an easy jump from there to "pay for play."

I’m from Dallas and went to prime prep . Deion is one of the nicest coolest heart warming people on this planet . Most of these people are just flat out racist …

Yeah, he really screwed himself out of a chance to win the Heisman and be a first-round draft pick with that decision.

Solid post. But the usual suspects of the MSB will say it’s because he’s black. BigScumTX already played that card of course

He’s going to need a tight circle around him when he hits the league to keep the blood sucking parasites from taking advantage of his kindness

Must suck to be that fricking ignorant.
right because how dare we think the 2nd best RB season of all time should be ignored because the other guys just plays a lot snaps on both sides and is just good at each one and not elite.

Moscona just said on his show this was an NCAA violation. Players coaches and admins can’t contribute to collectives.

Plus, he loves fishing. I watched an interview with him the other day and pretty much the whole time he was just talking about fishing while they were trying to ask him questions about the Heisman

Saw a clip where he was asked if he dreams about catching TDs or picking off passes.

He said he dreams about being on a boat catching fish...

He’s clearly a very deep individual and I can appreciate those dreams.

If anything Deion is very good at maketing his guys. I think Hunter will be a great. When it comes to his sons any team that drafts them will be left holding the bag. Shadeur being considered a first round QB is absurd. He took almost 40 sacks in a shite league. Imagine if he played in a real college conference.

And he is also playing in Colorado's bowl game even though he is 100% a lock to be a top 5 draft pick, very possible being the #1 pick. I gotta respect that.

Obviously he has national endorsements. Just signed a deal with Adidas in the last week.

Travis Hunter is a CLASS ACT!! Proved it few seasons ago after Colorado State Safety Henry Blackburn nearly decapitated him w a "border-line" cheap-shot!

Hunter was OUT several games ; then Blackburn started to receive "death threats"' ......

So Hunter made a social-media VIDEO w Blackburn saying there was "No Bad Blood" hugged each other ; and quit receiving all of the death threats!

Just Good Stuff!
