Travis Hunter really is Deion Sanders‘ other son. No matter what you say about Coach Prime and Co. you still have to admit that they are one of the most entertaining lot in all of CFB. In the center of it all, however, is Travis Hunter. From dancing around in onesies with his fiancee to joking around with Shedeur Sanders or Deion Sanders Jr., Hunter has made the turf and the Sanders’ household his second home.
So, when Deion decided to leave Hunter out of an important plan, the 2-way star was quick to raise his concern. As a joke, Coach Prime mentioned that he would be coming to play with his sons. He revealed this plan to LeBron James and Bronny James over on X. “I’m COMING Back to play with my sons to! This is HISTORICAL!” Deion had mentioned. Hunter, however, was not having it. Texting Deion a collage of Coach Prime and his sons, Hunter asked, “why I’m not in this picture.” And Deion Sanders had to quickly provide a solution.

With a newly edited image posted on Coach Prime’s Instagram account, Hunter is photoshopped next to Shedeur, Deion, and Shilo Sanders. See, no matter how many times you table these guys as “playing for clicks”, Hunter and Co. know how to connect with the fans.
The best part about all of this is that the entire gang is finally coming back together. Shilo was out of the last few games because of an injury he sustained during the Huskers showdown. With the surgery done and dusted, he is back to reprise his role as the safety.
And this is important because going up against the Wildcats, Coach Prime would need all of his best soldiers in line. Deion Sanders has almost reached the top spot on the Big 12 list. Comparing what the team is in the 2024 season to what they were back in 2023, you’d see that almost everything about the boys has changed. The question now is; Can Coach Prime ace his biggest test?

What’s your perspective on:
Can Deion Sanders' family-like bond with his players lead the Buffs to an unforgettable victory?
Have an interesting take?
It’s Coach Prime and the Buffs against all odds
As we pointed out before, having Shilo back for this week’s showdown would give Deion Sanders an edge. DC Robert Livingstone has already done his magic with the defensive line and now with Shilo in, Deion Sanders will have access to all the defensive starters.
Not only that, but it looks like Coach Prime is also keeping Shedeur and Hunter in check as well. During the latest press conference on DNVR Sports channel on YouTube, Deion made it clear that Shedeur and Co. can learn a heck lot from all their success. And it is important to do so because that would keep their ego in check.

From what we have seen so far, Shedeur has improved a lot this year. Call it Pat Shurmur’s magic or something else, Shedeur Sanders has been surviving quite well even in the roughest of situations. Hunter is also on point as the CB and WR and everyone expects him to do his magic yet again against the Wildcats. Now, we gotta play the waiting game and see what finally unfolds on the turf.
