The hype surrounding Hunter heading into the college football season was real following his first season at Colorado in 2023. Winning the Paul Hornung Award for the most versatile player in college football after playing in over 1,000 snaps last season to lead the nation in snaps from scrimmage in the regular season for the FBS. Doing so despite missing three and a half games due to a lacerated liver injury.

Hunter was also a consensus first-team All-American last season, named the Big 12 Preseason Defensive Player of the Year, and even earned one of three spots on the cover of the new College Football 25 video game. Making history on Thursday by becoming just the fourth player in the last 24 years to record three interceptions and eight receiving touchdowns in his career following his strong showing to open up the season.

His elite versatility on both sides of the ball has sparked dialogue surrounding his future this college football season and beyond. With discussions unfolding about what position he’ll potentially play at the NFL level, if he can play both sides of the ball with the pros, and if he can take home the Heisman Trophy even if Colorado ends the season with a losing record.

Hunter has definitely set the tone in what could be one of the most electric individual player seasons in recent college football history, making it intriguing to see if he can do enough to take home the Heisman Trophy in New York this December.
