Baby Gronk Claims Deion Sanders Compares Him to Travis Hunter Following His Flip to Colorado Buffs

Deion Sanders just landed his future star for Colorado’s 2031 class. The viral football prodigy, Baby Gronk, recently announced his commitment to play for the Buffaloes in the near future. Madden San Miguel, affectionately called Baby Gronk, just gave a clear message on social media: “I WILL PLAY FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO.” 

But is this a genuine commitment or just a publicity stunt? The 11-year-old has a history of changing his mind. He’s pledged to play for Michigan, Ohio State, LSU, and Oklahoma, only to “decommit” later. However, this commitment to Colorado might hold more weight as Baby Gronk recently revealed that Coach Prime compared him to their two-way phenom, sparking a genuine connection with the team. 

Deion Sanders just got his new Travis Hunter

Baby Gronk announced his commitment to play for the Buffaloes in 2031 with a picture featuring himself, Coach Prime, and the team’s star player, Travis Hunter. Now, the graphic poster with Hunter might have a deeper meaning. Baby Gronk’s latest post on X shows him in a Colorado uniform with the caption, “COACH PRIME SAID I COULD BE THE NEXT TRAVIS HUNTER.” 

Deion hasn’t commented on the viral kid yet, but Baby Gronk said that “after a long chat with Coach Prime,” he made his decision, and the Travis Hunter comparison could have likely come up during that talk. Baby Gronk is just 11 years old and has a long way to go until college football. Until then, whether he can stay committed or switch teams remains to be seen. 

Baby Gronk is ambitious to fill Hunter’s place

Baby Gronk might be just 11, but he’s already dreaming big. His social media, likely managed by his dad, showcases his dedication to the sport. The kid already follows a focused diet, intense training, and constant football talk. Last year, Baby Gronk even admired his favorite college football star, Travis Hunter, saying, “He’s gonna win the Heisman…stop doubting him haters!” A year later, the chance to be like someone he admires might be a driving force behind his commitment to Deion Sanders’ team.

However, the online world isn’t all sunshine and rainbows.  Critics question an 11-year-old’s commitment, especially after he’s previously switched allegiances to other colleges.  They see his announcement as unrealistic for an elementary school kid. It’s true; a long road lies ahead before Baby Gronk steps onto the college field.  Till then, his online confidence might seem ambitious at times, but it’s too early to judge.  All we can do is wait at least half a decade to see if he can make his big dreams come true.
