The biggest story of the 2024 college football season has to be Travis Hunter. The former Jackson State product took the sport by storm in 2023 and rose to superstardom in 2024, dominating as both a wide receiver and cornerback while playing for Deion Sanders' Colorado Buffaloes. His success on both sides of the ball earned him the coveted Heisman Trophy.
His incredible performance on both offense and defense would not be possible if he wasn't supremely conditioned. It also wouldn't be possible if he didn't have otherworldly athleticism. As if there were any doubts about that athleticism, Hunter showed it off on Saturday by pulling off incredible dunks before a Colorado basketball game.

He also got some help from teammate Shedeur Sanders, who helped him with some alley-oops. Sanders isn't as athletic as Hunter, so he took more of a point guard role while Hunter flew high.
It's not too surprising to see a 6-foot-1 football player be able to dunk, but it was the nature of the dunks and how high he was getting that was so impressive. He even went between-the-legs on one that would fit in in an NBA Dunk Contest.
It begs the question how far Hunter could have gone if he pursued a basketball career. For now, it seems like he made the right choice, as he has won a Heisman and is slated to be a Top 5 pick in the next NFL Draft.
