Travis Hunter: Why Heisman Trophy winner is ‘two players in one’ and such a rare talent in college football

CNN  

CNN — One of the rarest qualities in all of team sports is the ability to impact a game in multiple ways. One of the keys to harnessing Hunter’s immense ability has been playing under Sanders – also now known as Coach Prime – a former two-way player in his own right and current Colorado head coach. “He did it and knows what it takes – how much you have to be ready on both sides of the ball.” In his Heisman Trophy acceptance speech, Hunter said that Sanders had “changed my life forever,” and his relationship with the coach has been a key factor in the success of Hunter’s college career. “He’s the best player in college football,” Sanders said after the Buffaloes’ 52-0 win over Oklahoma State. “Travis Hunter proved today, and he’s proved every week, that he is the best player in college football.” There was only ever one Heisman winner in the eyes of Coach Prime.
