During a lighthearted moment captured by ‘Well Off Media’ after a spring practice session at CU, Travis Hunter couldn’t help but tease Coach Prime by asking, “You ready to be a grandad?” The playful banter continued as Hunter, who is recently engaged, jokingly remarked that he thought he’d bring baby news first, considering his impending marriage to fiancée Leanna Lenee. “I thought it was gonna be me first…but it ain’t me first,” quipped Hunter, igniting laughter and teasing between him and Coach Prime.

Hunter’s closeness with the Sanders family was front and center in this interaction as his teasing didn’t stop there. He turned his attention to Deion Sanders Jr., aka Bucky, who is set to become an uncle soon.

As Bucky recorded the interaction, Hunter playfully asked, “Uncle Bucky, You are ‘Uncle Bucky’ now. Are you excited, bro?” The jovial exchange continued as Hunter and Bucky bantered about the height of Deiondra’s unborn child. Hunter jokingly predicted a maximum height of 5’2″ and said, “He might not even pass 5′. Hey, if it’s a girl, 5 feet. If it’s a boy, 5’2.”

To that, Jr. added, “Bro ain’t got no choice but to act and sing (like his dad Jacques), be smart, bro going be smart.” Both Hunter and Bucky laughed as they imagined the possibilities and considered the petite stature of the soon-to-be parents.

After the laughter subsided, Hunter couldn’t resist poking fun at the family’s athletic legacy and suggesting that the baby would have Sanders blood and therefore must play baseball. Sanders Jr. joined in and playfully predicted that the child would be the “next mess,” while Hunter predicted that as a baseball player, he is going to be “fast as sh**.” Despite the teasing, Hunter and the Sanders family share in the anticipation and celebration of this upcoming milestone.
