Now, Shedeur Sanders is all set to silence the doubters in Boulder. Just a month ago, it seemed like the Buffs’ two-way star, Travis Hunter, was stealing the QB’s spotlight. Hunter’s presence on the cover of the EA Sports College Football 25 game had everyone buzzing. Thereafter, he also took on a leadership role during the team’s bonding retreat and even pushed himself through the grueling Navy SEAL training. But now, it’s the quarterback’s time to shine.

Shedeur is actively reclaiming his position as a leader. Many questioned Shedeur’s commitment after a wave of player departures from the Buffaloes. However, with the Big 12 season approaching, the quarterback has stepped up as a mentor for his wide receivers.

A recent training session captured by “Reach The People Media” perfectly highlights this shift. Shedeur is in full control, leading his teammates through drills. But it’s not just about the training – he also shows a genuine caring side. The video starts with him rushing back to the car saying, “I ain’t got no ice on. I had to go get some ice.” It looks like a small gesture but has captured the fans online.

He then transitions seamlessly into coaching mode, guiding the receivers on their arm swings and eye positions with a positive attitude. He motivates them by saying, “We got seven months bro to get all over with,” building a team spirit.

While Shedeur is busy inspiring players like Jimmy Horn Jr. and LaJohntay Wester, Buffs fans can’t help but miss the WR/CB combo potential of Travis Hunter. The internet is praising Shedeur’s dedication, but questions remain about Hunter’s commitment to the team.

Shedeur Sanders takes his crown back from Travis Hunter

The comment section of the YouTube video was full of praise for Shedeur Sanders, who revealed earlier this year that he would be returning to the Buffaloes amidst NFL draft speculations. One said, “Shedeur is focused and keeping the main thang the main thang. Let’s GO BUFF’S!” Another noted his efforts and commented, “They at it again 2️⃣ is locked in! Let’s Go Buffs. Shedeur is such a caring soul proud of nephew and his maturity. He’s Grown for real.”

Buffs fans were undoubtedly thrilled to see Shedeur back in action, after a stellar 2023 season where he posted school-record 3,230 yards with 27 touchdown passes. One decalred, “Shedeur #2 IS HIM!” However, amidst the praises, a fan questioned the negativity surrounding Shedeur, stating, “I don’t understand why people hate on this man! He puts in the work, doesn’t complain, and is a great leader!”

The video also sparked questions about the absence of two-way star Travis Hunter, with comments like “Travis never shows up for extra workouts” and “lol,  Travis make sure his off time is fa his girl.” It seems Shedeur might be reclaiming the spotlight after a period where Travis seemed to dominate the headlines.
