It’s big. If the kid develops into a first round pick at an HBCU and with the help of NIL this could change college football and future players would consider playing at a HBCU. It would be nice to see this happen instead of Alabama, Georgia and the usual suspects getting the top talent
It’s crazy to think in my youth that some of the best talents the NFL has seen came via HBCU’s!! A Who’s Who of players including Walter Payton, Jerry Rice, Michael Strahan, Art Shell, Jackie Slater… Doug Williams and soooooo many more HOF players John Stallworth, Mel Blount… players who changed the game, Deacon Jones. Some of the very best some of the top 100 players in league history and some of the greatest all time at their respective positions came from HBCU’s. A return to those days would signal a complete 360! Back to the days when the brightest and best “Black” talents attended HBCU’s
@Cody Hayden Sigh... These people always looking to bring somebody down, even when they have done nothing to warrant such actions. This world is effed up, at times.
That's what I was thinking. Another person commented on a different video yesterday about the same thing. Why is all of a sudden he #2 when even ESPN commentators in the video saying he the #1 recruit in the nation? No wonder they all acting shocked that Deion Sanders was able to get Travis.
Of he don't he not getting drafted. He chose to play against talent below his level, if he don't stand out say goodbye to football career. The NFL don't have patience with guys.
@@KNByam u can't say that, look how many great football players who legends and hall of famers that went to a HBCU and at the time it was harder to go pro because there was no Social media. Jerry Rice, Walter Payton, Jackie Slater, Michael Strahan, Shannon Sharpe. So no I disagree with u and the great Deion sanders is coaching him, the greatest defensive back of all time who's gonna put the finally stamp on this kids resume come draft time I think he's gonna be just fine.
@@JoshuaAvery-gp5dm But everyone fails to mention those guys came out long ago. Walter Payton, Jerry Rice, Jim Brown, Shannon Sharpe.

I understand he's under Deon Sanders tutelage, but against secondly tier talent if he don't perform above standard he won't get drafted. NFL draft can be brutal.
@@KNByam I get that people are looking at it also from the financial perspective FSU has better facilities, TV recognition than JSU, I get that FSU his Heisman chances are higher college, the word would get out faster to the NFL about the kid from a PWI than a HBCU, I get all of that but that but all it takes is one team in the league to give the kid a chance Pro days help the combine helps Deion Sanders connections are gonna help
Lets be honest I think if Deion sanders wasnt the coach he wouldn’t go there . But because of that who tf wouldn’t want to play for sanders. He treat all his players like their his kids . That type of leadership and love idk who wouldn’t want to give their 100% to them
The Fact Y'all Just Won't Deion At Power 5 School For Black Talent Just Proves That You Don't Really Care About What's Best For Us In Still Being Able To Be Successful As Long As A Pdw School Gets The Talent Y'all Are Satisfied We Want To Be Recognized As Power Schools By Us In For Us
Coach Sanders is doing a great job. The number # 1 recruit. Travis Hunter has great potential. Coach Sanders saying he is playing both ways and playing cornerback. He will be learning from the best in that position from Coach Sanders. Good luck.
@@Cruzfonny sure they did if that's the case don't y'all white people say pwi's have more money that hbcus?? If thats the case he could have got double that at fsu.
This one decision changed that course of THOUSANDS of lives! Truly a POWER MOVE! Travis went against the grain and the universe rewarded him with a Heisman Trophy! UNREAL!
Good for this young guy. Sounds like he has his own mind, and likely he has people around him that have encouraged him.

85 percent in basketball, 70 percent in football. We got that covered.. now can we focus on banking, realstate, government, education, ..white people laughing at us..
Coach Sanders is an amazing man, a former great athlete. I couldn't be more prouder of him. The man has made history that is long overdue. Why would these kids not want to play for a Coach like Deion? The Power five is about to get a wake up call, things are about to change in College football.... Again long overdue for HBCU'S.
If Peyton Manning was a head coach at Old Dominion and the highest rated 5 star white quarterback went there to learn from a top 5 QB in NFL history.......not a peep from anyone They say sports is a microcosm of America. Well, racism has existed in America as long as it's been around. That's why this move is hated
More kids need to stop thinking that if you don't get recruited to a power 5 school you can go to a black college and still make it to the NFL REAL TALK BIG FACTS
Hold on guys. Deion Sanders I don't think would uproot and leave Jackson State. Even for the money especially after getting a recruit like Travis Hunter to go there and others. If he did it would set HBC recruiting back decades. 💯💯
Of course they’d call Coach Prime but they more so thinking like they don’t want to start losing these top talents to these HBCUs. This is great, I can’t wait til he start putting these Powerhouse schools on their schedule.
@@1stnamebr406 besides making an emotional decision or trying to be trendsetter there is really know upside..but I put that on some these administration at these hbcu's.

Everyone is number one til they choose hbcu over pwi....mickey day was #1 point guard an recruit in nation....when he chose to go to an hbcu for basketball...his tanking dropped to like 4 or 5
We're all talking about his "sometimes we're called into a bigger future that we imagined for ourselves"...please...that University ONLY has him...that's it. Deion was a great player, but is he a "great coach"?! He had a great year (NOT all because of him...remember...other coaches around him!), but has he been great coach for years?! NO! 3, 4 & 5 stars prospects should go to schools that can offer him a shot at a National Championship and better chances of getting into the NFL. This FCS school will NEVER be in the College PlayOffs! #1 You watch these kids get shell shocked when Deion leaves for a "bigger and better" school in the near future. #2 This kid is just taking advantage of the NIL now (good for him, but this is NOT NFL-type money!). #3 Expect to see him in the transfer portal soon looking for a Big School like Alabama, Ohio State, etc.

That HBCU marching band atmosphere during Homecoming (plus Mama's influence) did the trick lol. Kudos to Prime for the flip.
I went to a HBCU . Problem is people care more about the band than the game..

Well duh the coach is 75% of the reason you sign
@Queen NitaBo Exactly, Deon could probably land the top 4 DB's in every draft class during his coaching tenure if he wanted to.
Remember before nick saban went to Alabama no one wanted to go there? Gee wonder why lol
Now he’s the heisman winner
now he about to win the heisman
I can’t believe people are trying to make this a debate.
The Heisman is 100% Travis’s.
His journey with Deon has been amazing to watch.
It's weird the recruit was rank #1 now he is #2
WOW HE WAS THE #1 PLAYER IN THE COUNTRY..NOW AFTER PICKING JSU THEEILOVE HE'S#2 IN THE COUNTRY TODAY

Prime testified the truth when he talked about recruits and HBCU homecomings.
They don't understand that it's more to it than just Coach Prime, it's the environment as well
I love this for HBCU colleges its a BIG Deal
He was the 1# recruit all year until he committed to Jackson State then he became the 2# recruit 🧐

I just realized that Deion went to FSU so he probably also talked to the people inside as well
Nice work Primetime
Love this story.
Best decision he ever made 🚀🚀
So happy and proud of him he will be remembered for his hard work and passion for a challenge one day
Wait I thought he was #1????
On most sites he is, on ESPN he’s been #2 for a while

Why is he #2 all of a sudden?? If he’s not #1..who is?? He’s #1&2 ! Wide receiver/corner.
I literally almost got up to go play for Deion Sanders
So so typical , the first thing Orvlosky does is say “Major schools should do is call Deon…..away from a Historically black school
The table is about to turn for college football
He #1 World🌍🌎🌏
Be mindful that since he committed to an HBCU. ESPN has yet to say “HBCU”
but says “FCS”. And no longer ranks him No. 1 but No. 2 now. Smh.
That boy got hands!
ESPN is not for us 🤦🏾♂️
Stop being a victim. He was no 2 all yr. Do some research. He was 1 on rivals and 247
