Is the Sanders-Hunter bond the strongest in college football, defying all odds and rumors?

The adorable bond between Deion Sanders and Travis Hunter has always been a talking point in the CFB world. The way coach Prime led the two-way star through every thick and thin in the team and the way the media giants highlight their beautiful nexus in their sensational headlines (which are not even exaggerated) can easily confuse a new bee into thinking Sanders is the biological father of Travis. But the reality is far from it. Coach Prime had his sons, Shedeur Sanders and Shilo Sanders, into the Colorado Buffs thick, but his exchanges with the 21-year-old Heisman favorite are something else that rightfully attracts eyeballs.

But the recent injury hitch in Hunter’s unfathomable momentum stirred the idea of a silent hostility between the father-son alike. Well, bad news for the haters. The 6 ft 1 star just assured the world of his unfailing admiration and love for the Coach Prime.

Travis Hunter has had a lot lately. From losing his mind over the Heisman setback to delivering a lackluster performance against the Wildcats, the kid’s supremacy was tottering. But what remains strong and steady is what he feels for the Colorado coach. In a recent chitchat with the Big Noon kickoff, Hunter wipes out the coach-player clash rumor saying, ‘‘It’s just an unbreakable father-son bond.”

”It’s just like we knew each other for years, even though we just met three years ago. That was my first time meeting him when he first called me from the hospital bed letting me know he wanted me to play for him.” said the Buffs’ Prodigy, reaffirming his equation with the coach Prime.

‘I love him so much and I know he loves me so much’: sounds enough to make you believe that Hunter-Sanders duo is immune to all the evil eyes? Well, even if it doesn’t, Travis ‘bih you thought’ Hunter couldn’t care less.

It is certainly not a lopsided feeling. Deion Sanders has also been pretty vocal about how he considers Travis nothing less than his 6th kid. But with paternal intimacy comes the right of a paternal admonition and the urge to control whenever things go wrong. During Hunter’s dominant performance against UCF earlier in the season, Sanders admitted he was not happy as his boy came up short in achieving his 100-yard streak as he promised. Also, when a half-fit Hunters disappointed against the Arizona Wildcats, Sanders found it upsetting. But all along, Coach Prime believes and keeps on believing in Travis Hunter’s supremacy and finds a way to sharpen it further in every chance. However, the real USP of their bond lies outside the gridiron.

Can you imagine Hunter and Sanders fighting each other off on a cloudy afternoon in Texas? Well, this is what they did in real. Take it easy! We are not talking about an on-field rivalry. The cowboy bond Hunters shares with the entire Sanders family allows him to spend a lot of colloquial time with Coach Prime and his sons. His social media banters with the veteran often rise to the headline, giving us a glimpse of their fun time.

During Colorado’s idle week before the week 11 challenge against the Texas Tech Red Raiders, the two Buffs’ moguls were caught in a delightful mood fishing near a waterside. The $45 million Deion Sanders tweeted about his competitive leisure activity with his favorite boy, rolling it with a caption that reads, ”Fish off right here. You can tell when folks quiet, how it’s going.”

Hunter promptly replied, ”Zero-zero to me.”

Well, the Colorado guys have every right to let it loose amidst nature, as they came off strong and steadfast during the last fight against Cincinnati. We can only hope week 11 treats them the same, leading to a better playoff hope.
