Travis Hunter is not only a Star Athlete, but a 4.0 GPA Student. Incredible young man, has great character, quick on his feet, his mind, and his heart is with God.
@@84productions24him being smart doesn’t surprise me. Preparing for an offensive and defensive gameplan every week and executing it on a high level requires some intelligence.
Travis’ girl got her a good one. She’s probably his first and she’s older than him. I pray that his trust in Prime is strong enough for him to take his advice. 😊
Those who been here since the JSU days knew this. Unfortunately the media has twisted narratives for those who don’t know him to think he’s some arrogant cocky athlete .
if ol girl is anything like Coach Prime's ex wife..... idk. Prime only made it out of that because he was the 1% of the 1% as usual. But seeing how this young man talks so optimistically I hate to say it, women will absolutely be his downfall as a athlete. Its why they tell you to hold off on that stuff until 25+ when we were division 1 athletes in college. Every coach, every mentor, even the spiritual counselors of your faith all tell you to tread lightly because all things that look gold are usually far from it. the type of rules she made him take as if she was the man in the relationship means the moment he slips up because he is human she will have ZERO grace for buddy especially since she already didnt like him from day one. Those are her words, she legit had buddy on the DND list until she heard news of his sports accolades in the exotic dancer club she worked at.
Travis and Deion’s relationship gotta be so crazy. On one end Travis trusted Deion with his future and on the other end Deion had to make sure Travis would shine. They both took huge risks on each other and both had a lot of pressure to make it the right decision for both. Prime gotta have so much respect for Travis taking a chance and going to Jackson State. Special bond.
You can tell he has to protect her heart to keep his intact & its a shame..when you fall in love with someone & they're growing to love you..thats hurtful..damn he just keep pushing her her her...she makes his decision Crazy...she took the place of his moms
Travis Hunter this season: - 88.3 receiving grade (5th among FBS WRs) - 90.9 coverage grade (2nd among FBS CBs) 90.3 defensive grade (3rd among FBs CB) - 92 Catches (4th in fbs 2nd in P4) - 1,152 Yards (5th in FBs 2nd in P4) - 15 Touchdowns (2nd in FBS with 1 less ,1st inP4 - 31 Tackles - 15 PBU’s (1st in big 12) - 4 Interceptions -1 Game winning force fumble -1 TD allowed in last 16 games (Only been target less than 30 times btw) -Allowed the least amount of 1st downs in college -also missed 1/1/2 games this year due to injury
Travis was the first five star to sign with a HBCU. Then transferred to a low tier “Power 4 PWI” and is on the verge of the Heisman. Yet on every video and stream he goes out his way to sign autographs or interact w/ the fans Salute 💯
I left out how some “analysts” said he was too small to be WR and DB at the then “Power 5 Level” Then last year the excuse was he’s not winning, durable or elite at either position. This year he led the BIG 12 (pause) in receptions, TD and pass breakups. Colorado was one game away from playing for a conference championship and earning a playoff spot.
This interview is solidifying a lot of things for him. Teams are dissecting everything right now, and this is such a positive representation of who Travis is as a person.
This whole staff is very protective of Travis. His athletic trainer is always with him during the games. The relationships are great. Coach Prime is always about relationships.
Man...this is one of the most heart-warming sitdowns. This IS US....Love it! I love how he didn't hesitate when asked about who has been influential in his life - Coaches. The young man appears to have his head on straight. He also seems to have his priorities in order. I wish him all the best - and to Coach Prime, one word! WOW!!!
I’ve had so much stress on me for holding the responsibility that I need to take care of my whole family but when Travis said they still old enough to work that took so much pressure off of me I genuinely appreciate hearing that!
Why Travis Hunter Deserves the Heisman Trophy Travis Hunter's detractors argue that his two-way accomplishments are not unprecedented, but a deeper analysis reveals that what he is achieving is truly unique and historic. Let me address this with a comparative lens and contextual evidence. The 2,000-Yard Rushing Argument Rushing for over 2,000 yards in a season is undeniably a remarkable feat, but it is far from unprecedented. In fact, 26 players in FBS history have achieved this milestone, with some, like Troy Davis, doing so in consecutive seasons. While this accomplishment reflects athleticism and dominance, it has become a recognized standard for elite running backs rather than an extraordinary outlier. Running backs like Barry Sanders, Derrick Henry, and Melvin Gordon have reached these heights, and their contributions are indeed celebrated. However, the sheer number of players to have achieved this feat demonstrates that it is a repeatable accomplishment within the right systems and with sufficient opportunities. Why Travis Hunter Stands Out Travis Hunter’s performance on both sides of the ball redefines what it means to be a complete football player. He is excelling at two physically demanding positions-cornerback and wide receiver-at an elite level. While there have been notable two-way players in the past, such as Charles Woodson, none have matched Hunter’s consistent production on both offense and defense. Snap Count and Productivity Critics may dismiss snap counts as "not stats," but Hunter's ability to maintain high-level production over such an extensive workload is unparalleled. Few, if any, players in modern college football history have consistently contributed as a lockdown defender, a dynamic playmaker on offense, and a game-changing presence in crucial moments. Historical Context Players like Charles Woodson, who won the Heisman in 1997, are often mentioned as comparisons. However, Woodson’s offensive contributions were occasional and largely overshadowed by his defensive dominance. Travis Hunter’s dual-role production is significantly more balanced, with substantial contributions in receptions, receiving yards, touchdowns, and defensive statistics such as interceptions and pass breakups. Impact on Team Success Beyond individual statistics, Hunter’s influence on team dynamics and game outcomes cannot be overstated. His presence forces opponents to game-plan for him in ways that single-role players rarely require, making him a true force multiplier. Rarity of the Achievement While many running backs have rushed for 2,000 yards, how many players can claim to have excelled in over 100 snaps per game, covering two distinct skill sets at an elite level? What Hunter is doing is not just rare-it is transformative for the sport. Conclusion: A Unique Case for the Heisman Travis Hunter’s season represents a singular achievement that transcends the traditional metrics used to evaluate college football players. While rushing for 2,000 yards is commendable, it is a well-trodden path. In contrast, Hunter’s ability to impact games on offense and defense at a high level is not only unprecedented in recent history but also redefines what is possible in college football. The Heisman Trophy is awarded to the most outstanding player in college football. Given his unique contributions, productivity, and historical significance, Travis Hunter is the embodiment of what the Heisman represents.
Well said. I love football. Don't know much about stats; however Travis is a gifted football player. Kudos to the team. They allow him to perform and perfect his gift and skill.
You presented compelling case why Travis Hunter should be awarded The Heisman. Smart-Tough-Fast-Disciplined-With Character. He embodies all that and more.
Travis is the type of person and athlete that can be trusted with MUCH! He knows how great he is, yet he doesn’t allow it to define him as a person! He allows his performance to speak solely!!! ❤
Yes, he truly is and I would hate to see somebody take advantage of his innocence and his humbleness, but I’m trusting Coach PRIME to take care of him and keep an eye on him.❗️
The fact that Travis plays both ways and Deion is his mentor and a father figure. This isn't accidental - this is God's sovereignty. TH will play both ways in the NFL.
I hope all the haters and doubters (everybody outside of Colorado and CSU fans) watch this interview and recognize how humble and hardworking this young man is.
From a high school phenom,to Heisman finalist(with high probabilities,to win the award)and soon to the NFL. And the best,is yet to come. Travis is a unicorn,the most exciting prospect of the last years!Can't wait to see him succeed,in the NFL. If he stays humble,out of injuries and continues to work hard,the sky is the limit for him! PS. Congrats guys for 1 million subscribers,salute from Greece.🇬🇷

For those that are saying he’s so humble he been like this forever now but leave it to the media to try to portray someone in a negative way to get people to dislike a person. Great interview 🙏💪🏾
Ain't nobody hating on his fiance. We want to see Travis win. He seems pure and we want to protect him. That man is in love and we're on the outside looking in. We just all hope his fiance is as pure as he is and doesn't do him dirty.
Thank you.... I want him to win and continue to be great. I just don't want her to be a stresser in his life. What he and SHE has to understand is that in the NFL, she can't be everywhere with him and she can't be the reason he doesn't interact with folk. At the end of the day HE IS THE golden goose. I pray that she gets understanding in their process of growing. The other thing... Coach Prime told them at their last team meeting, the NFL WILL have investigators all over them from this point until the draft. They ARE going to ask him about the same things but not in such a nice tone as RC did.
Here’s why Travis is the athlete who can play both sides in the NFL: He’s not like everyone else. He’s set apart. His purpose, rather he even understands it or not is to infiltrate the sports industry for the better of people who look like him. God has fashioned him and this is bigger than him. God will give him the ability to do everything that is required as long as Travis never loses sight of Him. Staying humble is key. He has a favor on his life that we have not seen before and I truly believe that God will remove anyone who tries to interfere with his destiny. I’ve spent years praying to see someone like Travis in real life. This dude is more than an athlete. He’s a world changer. He can do and will do anything that he sets his mind to do. He’s a true gift from God. He’s going to make the world a better place for a lot of people. He’s the answer to a prayer. He will do well. I look forward to seeing him show out. May God get all the glory 🙌🏽🩵
Plenty of players can do it but what's most important to move the team for a championship succeeds what a players wants to do,lil league high school and some in college then the NFL,it's about what's best for the team...
@@davidestick9936 speak for yourself my man. I been following Bucky and WellOff Media since he had less than 50k subs. The early JSU days. When he didn't have any jewelry on. Lol! I been following his work. It's time he gets his justdue and recognition for all the yardwork he's put in for the Sanders family brand.
Being from Colorado, I'm super proud to have this dude reppin our Buffs and the organization right now! Want nothing but success and love for this dude! Heisman coming! This is why I love the pivot, they ask the good questions and show the true character of people. Great interview!
The Pivot has become the gold standard for former athletes that have podcasts. I watched all of you guys play and i am now watching you post career maintaining excellence in your field.
Nothing in this world can make me dislike this dude! I don’t care he’s one of the greatest talents on both sides of the field and off the field, he’s just as great if not better! How can you hate this?
Prime and sapp just posted in the interview makes this even more legendary thank you for the amazing season! Travis get that hiesman and good luck in the nfl legendary
I believe Travis can play both positions ! Fans couldn’t believe that Deion Sanders would play NFL Football and MLB Baseball at the same time but Dieon made it happen!! Not to mention coached by the best COACH PRIME!! ❤

People wonder why Deion gets recruits ? Because he is either A. A extension of their home or B. He gives them what they are lacking at home . Hats off to coach prime ! Continue to build that empire Dungey family
Big salute to Travis and his fiancé. Keep doing yall as a couple. People out here acting like their relationships are perfect and don’t deal problems. Weather the storm big Trav and keep working hard. 💯💪🏾🏈
Prenup respects both to keep them in love. Also Tennessee vs FL for wedding…FL changed alimony laws in 2024, no spousal support. Check out Tennessee laws. 😮
As a Black woman of a particular age, he could be my son and this entire interview broke my heart. That girl gonna have that young man taking of her entire family while ignoring the ones who gave birth to him. Watch
BS, he already bought his mom a house. And didn't you hear him keep saying he is doing all of this for his siblings and family? No way he'll diss his own people, not gonna happen. ✨🙏🏽
Her family already has money. Travis got his mother a home but leanna family already in a mansion. They love each other, she is a good girl nobody is perfect, she will learn from this and do better
I have been following Travis since Coach Prime joined the SWAC and when they got to Colorado, I was locked in. I've watched a lot of Well of Media and Reach the People Media RUclips Videos which shows a lot of Team practices and other stuff. Travis is a very humble individual and I can't wait to hear his name called this Saturday!! Travis for HE12MAN!!! 🏈🏈♥♥
@ I personally play 5 years with the Chargers and 1 with the 49ers. That is from my perspective playing D1 and NFL. I have also watched Travis play the past 2 years in person as a season ticket holder at CU. When I said best player that means the best athlete I have ever seen play to date.
I love this kids energy and confidence in himself when you believe in yourself the way he does nothing and nobody can stop you. Can’t wait to see more of his greatness in the future
Talk about the “GOATs” of podcasting! I love to see the fact that these men use logic and reasoning while questioning the guest. They give each other the opportunity to both ask their own questions and respond, in addition to highlighting each other. They also consider their guest as the whole of who they are, while addressing current events! They truly do their due diligence and show what it means to evolve & pursevere in the journey of life!
I am a fan of Travis all the way around. He will be a legend. I hope that he is right about his girlfriend, but as a father,I am absolutely scared for him. We are praying for you Travis, please be careful.
Seeing Travis, growing up right in front of us and how much he’s mature and preparing for the NFL is something to behold and I pray that God continues to bless him in his next chapter in life
I love water myself but the ocean u will never mess with, if I can not see some land somewhere yeah it’s not for me and I can swim. Travis is a great young man.
All three of these guys are 55/50!!! Stellar personalities. Self confident! Great questions. Remarkable self images. Love their interview styles and channel. Gooooo Trav!!!!!!!! 🏆
He seems to be a great person and outstanding level headed young man, and that's refreshing to see. I pray the woman he loves holds him in the same light genuinely and not be a downfall for him.
Travis is so poised . He can do it ALL . Prime is a great coach and has educated this young man to be a successful player and man . Wonderful interview
🗣I respect them for allowing me to get that close to their father cause at the end of the day, that's their father... I love and respect that response!💞 I am so happy for Trav. I smiled throughout this whole sit-down like the proud internet auntie that I am.😊 Betting on himself, taking the risk and trusting Coach Prime DEFINITELY changed his life and put him in the best position to be as great as he is and will continue to be. And I love it for him!
What most of yall don’t hear is that his girl was his girl before he got around all these new figures. She was with him since HIGH SCHOOL. He seems to have great self respect and discipline than all the old heads who keep “ trying to school him about woman” at that age. So he listens but he knows where to compartmentalize all that divorcee advice. He takes football and fatherly advice from Deion but he’s got his own ways for relationship. And I’m glad
There is no doubt in my mind that Travis is not as slow as people think he is when it comes to his relationship with Leanna... we've all seen the vids therefore we should know that her mental health was compromised in the past...if I know that...Trav knows that... being the guy he is and this video right here shows a very calm...collected...in touch with reality... strong young brother... now what happens to his behavior when he's with his girl... only he knows... even goofy at times....he definitely puts his alpha dog behavior aside... but when his alpha is needed... check out how he handles these alpha men and their questions....and that's where he gets my respect...the guy with the "A" ball cap on offered Trav some advice on making babies....Trav told the brother that his father had 14 kids... not that Trav wants 14 kids but that his father passed down the genes and the tools for all that...Trav is protective of her because he knows something about her that we don't...to the point of being silly with her to ...he knows that he's being a fool in love for her....but he doesn't FEEL like one... until he does he won't change.... but around other strong men....his alpha shows up....
I was cheesing ear to ear the whole episode 🥹🙌🏽🔥🔥 loved this one fam!! It’s gonna do numbers. I pray God keeps Travis injury free in his career he has nothing but an amazing road ahead.
No one is mad about him and his girl, we see what he refuses to see and are looking out for him... hes being prideful in his defense of her, and pride comes before the fall.
Na yall bring weird and don’t know this man at all and don’t know his girl was there when nobody else wasn’t .. yall just see a black man with a pretty girl that’s not black and people assume that worse FACTS
@@Jaywon44558 Both her mother and grandmother have appeared in their videos. Her mother is a Black woman and her grandmother is a Black woman (same complexion as Travis). Her father is Mexican and Filipino. She comes from a mixed race family, but said years ago that she is not white.
I love that Travis corrected him and said 4 sons instead of 3. Don’t leave big bro Bucky out☺️

Why Travis Hunter Deserves the Heisman Trophy
Travis Hunter's detractors argue that his two-way accomplishments are not unprecedented, but a deeper analysis reveals that what he is achieving is truly unique and historic. Let me address this with a comparative lens and contextual evidence.
The 2,000-Yard Rushing Argument
Rushing for over 2,000 yards in a season is undeniably a remarkable feat, but it is far from unprecedented. In fact, 26 players in FBS history have achieved this milestone, with some, like Troy Davis, doing so in consecutive seasons. While this accomplishment reflects athleticism and dominance, it has become a recognized standard for elite running backs rather than an extraordinary outlier. Running backs like Barry Sanders, Derrick Henry, and Melvin Gordon have reached these heights, and their contributions are indeed celebrated. However, the sheer number of players to have achieved this feat demonstrates that it is a repeatable accomplishment within the right systems and with sufficient opportunities.
Why Travis Hunter Stands Out
Travis Hunter’s performance on both sides of the ball redefines what it means to be a complete football player. He is excelling at two physically demanding positions-cornerback and wide receiver-at an elite level. While there have been notable two-way players in the past, such as Charles Woodson, none have matched Hunter’s consistent production on both offense and defense.
Snap Count and Productivity
Critics may dismiss snap counts as "not stats," but Hunter's ability to maintain high-level production over such an extensive workload is unparalleled. Few, if any, players in modern college football history have consistently contributed as a lockdown defender, a dynamic playmaker on offense, and a game-changing presence in crucial moments.
Historical Context
Players like Charles Woodson, who won the Heisman in 1997, are often mentioned as comparisons. However, Woodson’s offensive contributions were occasional and largely overshadowed by his defensive dominance. Travis Hunter’s dual-role production is significantly more balanced, with substantial contributions in receptions, receiving yards, touchdowns, and defensive statistics such as interceptions and pass breakups.
Impact on Team Success
Beyond individual statistics, Hunter’s influence on team dynamics and game outcomes cannot be overstated. His presence forces opponents to game-plan for him in ways that single-role players rarely require, making him a true force multiplier.
Rarity of the Achievement
While many running backs have rushed for 2,000 yards, how many players can claim to have excelled in over 100 snaps per game, covering two distinct skill sets at an elite level? What Hunter is doing is not just rare-it is transformative for the sport.
Conclusion: A Unique Case for the Heisman
Travis Hunter’s season represents a singular achievement that transcends the traditional metrics used to evaluate college football players. While rushing for 2,000 yards is commendable, it is a well-trodden path. In contrast, Hunter’s ability to impact games on offense and defense at a high level is not only unprecedented in recent history but also redefines what is possible in college football.
The Heisman Trophy is awarded to the most outstanding player in college football. Given his unique contributions, productivity, and historical significance, Travis Hunter is the embodiment of what the Heisman represents.

Yes, he truly is and I would hate to see somebody take advantage of his innocence and his humbleness, but I’m trusting Coach PRIME to take care of him and keep an eye on him.❗️
The fact that Travis plays both ways and Deion is his mentor and a father figure. This isn't accidental - this is God's sovereignty. TH will play both ways in the NFL.
HBCUs really win
I can't say this enough, this kid is something special. So happy for him. He worked for his success.
I hope all the haters and doubters (everybody outside of Colorado and CSU fans) watch this interview and recognize how humble and hardworking this young man is.
Great young man
it won't matter they will move the goal post hell
From a high school phenom,to Heisman finalist(with high probabilities,to win the award)and soon to the NFL. And the best,is yet to come. Travis is a unicorn,the most exciting prospect of the last years!Can't wait to see him succeed,in the NFL. If he stays humble,out of injuries and continues to work hard,the sky is the limit for him! PS. Congrats guys for 1 million subscribers,salute from Greece.🇬🇷

There is no award more prestigious than the Heisman. A person gets it while they are young and get to gaze upon it ALL THE REST IF THEIR LIFE.
For those that are saying he’s so humble he been like this forever now but leave it to the media to try to portray someone in a negative way to get people to dislike a person. Great interview 🙏💪🏾
Travis Hunter is that guy! Thank y’all for having him on.
You can't hate on this young man. 4.0 student athlete, humble and just a good human being
Ain't nobody hating on his fiance. We want to see Travis win. He seems pure and we want to protect him. That man is in love and we're on the outside looking in. We just all hope his fiance is as pure as he is and doesn't do him dirty.
Thank you.... I want him to win and continue to be great. I just don't want her to be a stresser in his life. What he and SHE has to understand is that in the NFL, she can't be everywhere with him and she can't be the reason he doesn't interact with folk. At the end of the day HE IS THE golden goose. I pray that she gets understanding in their process of growing. The other thing... Coach Prime told them at their last team meeting, the NFL WILL have investigators all over them from this point until the draft. They ARE going to ask him about the same things but not in such a nice tone as RC did.
PERIOD!!
💯💯💯
Definitely some people that are
Just because she not black
Travis and Bucky has the best relationship out of all the sons 😂 If you watch the Well Off videos youll know them boys love each other.. BBL Travis 😂😂
How can U not be hoping the best for this young man, a wonderful human being as well
If you don’t like prime
Hearing Travis today makes me love and respect him more. Love, love , love this young man. Praying for his continued success ❤❤❤
His stats are crazy!! Give him the Heisman! 🔥🔥🔥🏆
That young man has learned from men how to prioritize life. He will be successful no matter what career field he chooses
I pray for Trav. I hope he gets everything he desires. He works for it and he deserves it all. Bless him. Can’t wait for the draft. 🎉
Travis speaking about him and Shedeur’s relationship is beautiful
Congrats to the Pivot and 1 million subscribers !!! It’s about time 🎉
Here’s why Travis is the athlete who can play both sides in the NFL:
He’s not like everyone else.
He’s set apart.
His purpose, rather he even understands it or not is to infiltrate the sports industry for the better of people who look like him.
God has fashioned him and this is bigger than him. God will give him the ability to do everything that is required as long as Travis never loses sight of Him.
Staying humble is key.
He has a favor on his life that we have not seen before and I truly believe that God will remove anyone who tries to interfere with his destiny.
I’ve spent years praying to see someone like Travis in real life. This dude is more than an athlete. He’s a world changer.
He can do and will do anything that he sets his mind to do.
He’s a true gift from God. He’s going to make the world a better place for a lot of people. He’s the answer to a prayer.
He will do well. I look forward to seeing him show out. May God get all the glory 🙌🏽🩵
Amen...
💯 🙌🏾
Plenty of players can do it but what's most important to move the team for a championship succeeds what a players wants to do,lil league high school and some in college then the NFL,it's about what's best for the team...
Great interview. Can't wait for Shedeur's interview. Can y'all interview Bucky too. I think that would a good one!
Bucky might be the best one. He’s probably the one we know the least and probably has a hell of a story to tell
@@davidestick9936 speak for yourself my man. I been following Bucky and WellOff Media since he had less than 50k subs. The early JSU days. When he didn't have any jewelry on. Lol! I been following his work. It's time he gets his justdue and recognition for all the yardwork he's put in for the Sanders family brand.
This is such a HBCU boost! Those guys have shined a light on HBCUs❤
Huge...coach prime sent ed reed .... Bethune
Being from Colorado, I'm super proud to have this dude reppin our Buffs and the organization right now! Want nothing but success and love for this dude! Heisman coming!
This is why I love the pivot, they ask the good questions and show the true character of people. Great interview!
The Pivot has become the gold standard for former athletes that have podcasts. I watched all of you guys play and i am now watching you post career maintaining excellence in your field.
Nothing in this world can make me dislike this dude! I don’t care he’s one of the greatest talents on both sides of the field and off the field, he’s just as great if not better! How can you hate this?
Prime and sapp just posted in the interview makes this even more legendary thank you for the amazing season! Travis get that hiesman and good luck in the nfl legendary
He is a great role model for the younger generation. I wish him nothing but the best!
Thank you PIVOT for sharing Travis Hunter with us!!!!
This young man is an amazing person. When you know your why, everything falls in place. Keep going and keep pushing!!!!
I believe Travis can play both positions ! Fans couldn’t believe that Deion Sanders would play NFL Football and MLB Baseball at the same time but Dieon made it happen!! Not to mention coached by the best COACH PRIME!! ❤

Damn that’s work
Congratulations to Travis & the pivot on 1 MILLION!!
THIS ONE FOR 2024🎉🎉
Thanks R.C., Fred and Channin 🙏🏿🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
People wonder why Deion gets recruits ? Because he is either A. A extension of their home or B. He gives them what they are lacking at home . Hats off to coach prime ! Continue to build that empire Dungey family
Big salute to Travis and his fiancé. Keep doing yall as a couple. People out here acting like their relationships are perfect and don’t deal problems. Weather the storm big Trav and keep working hard. 💯💪🏾🏈
Prenup respects both to keep them in love. Also Tennessee vs FL for wedding…FL changed alimony laws in 2024, no spousal support. Check out Tennessee laws. 😮
Love how Sapp was in there with Travis. Coach Prime is not playing around.
TRAVIS HE12MAN 🥶🥶🥶
Dope Postz
As a Black woman of a particular age, he could be my son and this entire interview broke my heart. That girl gonna have that young man taking of her entire family while ignoring the ones who gave birth to him. Watch
With Deion as a Father figure I don’t see that happening.
@niccolethompson4538 we can only hope
BS, he already bought his mom a house. And didn't you hear him keep saying he is doing all of this for his siblings and family? No way he'll diss his own people, not gonna happen. ✨🙏🏽
Her family already has money. Travis got his mother a home but leanna family already in a mansion. They love each other, she is a good girl nobody is perfect, she will learn from this and do better
Wow. Very impressive. I didnt know anything about this young man before this show. I respect the heck out of him after this.
Crazy people hate on this Young man. And its mostly from being with Prime. Sad world we live in. 🤷🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️💯
I have been following Travis since Coach Prime joined the SWAC and when they got to Colorado, I was locked in. I've watched a lot of Well of Media and Reach the People Media RUclips Videos which shows a lot of Team practices and other stuff. Travis is a very humble individual and I can't wait to hear his name called this Saturday!! Travis for HE12MAN!!! 🏈🏈♥♥
Love him
Same - Ms. Pat
@@shemiekarenee0117 right! That’s all I say when people talk about him! - Ms Pat
"He ain't SWAC, I'm SWAC" 😂
Just a great kid!!
Travis is the best player I have ever seen play in college or NFL.
College, I’ll give u that but NFL? Cmon fam, he ain’t even played a down yet
@ I personally play 5 years with the Chargers and 1 with the 49ers. That is from my perspective playing D1 and NFL. I have also watched Travis play the past 2 years in person as a season ticket holder at CU. When I said best player that means the best athlete I have ever seen play to date.
Eaze up smh
Best college football player In the nation. That’s not debatable
Travis Hunter is the prodigal athlete, student and person.
I love how humble Travis is! I pray God continues to bless him & he continues to surround himself with good people!
Man Give This Man The Heisman trophy… Best College Player This Year… May God Continue To Bless You Travis
This interview raised his stock all the more!!
This was another great interview Travis I wish you and Leanna endless blessings in life and endeavors you both deserve it 🥰✨💞
💕
I love this kids energy and confidence in himself when you believe in yourself the way he does nothing and nobody can stop you. Can’t wait to see more of his greatness in the future
Talk about the “GOATs” of podcasting! I love to see the fact that these men use logic and reasoning while questioning the guest. They give each other the opportunity to both ask their own questions and respond, in addition to highlighting each other. They also consider their guest as the whole of who they are, while addressing current events! They truly do their due diligence and show what it means to evolve & pursevere in the journey of life!
Mad Love for Travis. All the best. Continue being great!! So....PRENUP!!! BE SMART!!
This is how young men carry themselves in life. Congratulations 🎊🎉so respectful, humble ❤
Facts 👌
I am a fan of Travis all the way around. He will be a legend. I hope that he is right about his girlfriend, but as a father,I am absolutely scared for him. We are praying for you Travis, please be careful.
Coach Prime you a Genius Man!
Seeing Travis, growing up right in front of us and how much he’s mature and preparing for the NFL is something to behold and I pray that God continues to bless him in his next chapter in life
I’ve been waiting for this interview!!!
This is the first interview that really really show cases Travis vulnerability on a personable level. Thank you PIVOT. 🙏🏽
I love this young man 🙏🏽❣️May God protect and bless him for the rest of his life🫶🏼🤲🏼
6:48 I respect him even more I agree make sure your family works 😂😂😂
They know the impact coach Sanders will have on college football, and they don't want that to materialize.💯✌️
I love water myself but the ocean u will never mess with, if I can not see some land somewhere yeah it’s not for me and I can swim. Travis is a great young man.
T Hunter is a humble dog. Great interview and congratulations to the pivot team 1M subscribers 🎉
All three of these guys are 55/50!!! Stellar personalities. Self confident! Great questions. Remarkable self images. Love their interview styles and channel.
Gooooo Trav!!!!!!!! 🏆
Congratulations on 1M subscribers 💯💯
He seems to be a great person and outstanding level headed young man, and that's refreshing to see. I pray the woman he loves holds him in the same light genuinely and not be a downfall for him.
Travis is so poised . He can do it ALL . Prime is a great coach and has educated this young man to be a successful player and man . Wonderful interview
🗣I respect them for allowing me to get that close to their father cause at the end of the day, that's their father... I love and respect that response!💞
I am so happy for Trav. I smiled throughout this whole sit-down like the proud internet auntie that I am.😊 Betting on himself, taking the risk and trusting Coach Prime DEFINITELY changed his life and put him in the best position to be as great as he is and will continue to be. And I love it for him!
CONGRATULATIONS on your new level of 1M subscribers. More Blessings to the Team.
Watching from China! Loved the interview, gentlemen. This is the most I’ve seen Travis open up in an interview. He was so comfortable.
Travis is ripping it up in this interview, its nice to know the actual person
🗣️Great interview! I had the koolaid smile the whole time😂🫶🏾
I love everything about this young man his HIM
aww yea he been told about his gal for sure all the game he got around him the biggest blessing a man can have
What most of yall don’t hear is that his girl was his girl before he got around all these new figures. She was with him since HIGH SCHOOL. He seems to have great self respect and discipline than all the old heads who keep “ trying to school him about woman” at that age. So he listens but he knows where to compartmentalize all that divorcee advice. He takes football and fatherly advice from Deion but he’s got his own ways for relationship. And I’m glad
What a wonderful interview. This is how questions need to ask and answered. Godspeed go with you Trav.
There is no doubt in my mind that Travis is not as slow as people think he is when it comes to his relationship with Leanna... we've all seen the vids therefore we should know that her mental health was compromised in the past...if I know that...Trav knows that... being the guy he is and this video right here shows a very calm...collected...in touch with reality... strong young brother... now what happens to his behavior when he's with his girl... only he knows... even goofy at times....he definitely puts his alpha dog behavior aside... but when his alpha is needed... check out how he handles these alpha men and their questions....and that's where he gets my respect...the guy with the "A" ball cap on offered Trav some advice on making babies....Trav told the brother that his father had 14 kids... not that Trav wants 14 kids but that his father passed down the genes and the tools for all that...Trav is protective of her because he knows something about her that we don't...to the point of being silly with her to ...he knows that he's being a fool in love for her....but he doesn't FEEL like one... until he does he won't change.... but around other strong men....his alpha shows up....
I was cheesing ear to ear the whole episode 🥹🙌🏽🔥🔥 loved this one fam!! It’s gonna do numbers. I pray God keeps Travis injury free in his career he has nothing but an amazing road ahead.
Yesssuh!! In Jesus Name Amen!!🙏🏾
Congratulations to Travis. Kid has game. His QB should have finished Top 4 in voting as well
No one is mad about him and his girl, we see what he refuses to see and are looking out for him... hes being prideful in his defense of her, and pride comes before the fall.
Na yall bring weird and don’t know this man at all and don’t know his girl was there when nobody else wasn’t .. yall just see a black man with a pretty girl that’s not black and people assume that worse FACTS
To be in love so young….he doesn’t know any better. Yes he is humble & book smart. Life will teach you valuable lessons. . Hope he does have a prenup.
speak for yourself
@@Jaywon44558this lol ppl being obtuse tho
@@Jaywon44558 Both her mother and grandmother have appeared in their videos. Her mother is a Black woman and her grandmother is a Black woman (same complexion as Travis). Her father is Mexican and Filipino. She comes from a mixed race family, but said years ago that she is not white.
