“When he catches that football, no one catches him on the football field.” Call him the Big Mac of college football or a Happy Meal, whenever the name Travis Hunter comes up, all eyes light up. What has this guy not done? In the gridiron, he was as good, if not even better than Champ Bailey and then you have the Heisman win. What started off as a simple “I just want to be better than (Coach Prime)” has now completely changed to “I want to play 100 percent (on both sides).” And honestly? This dream is on the verge of becoming reality—perhaps even sooner than Travis Hunter expects. With the draft just a month away, we can’t wait to see what the future has in store for Hunter. It could be No.1 Pick, it could be both WR/CB pick – practically, it could be anything.
However, one thing we are definitely sure of is the fact that Hunter’s mommy will be looking stunning during the drafts. Quite a turn of events, huh? Back on Ferrante Edmonds IG story, we spotted a unique opportunity: “Seeking a sponsor for my NFL draft look.” The catch is simple: A luxury hairstylist along with a makeup artist and a designer/boutique – all will get to sponsor Edmonds draft look. Like who in their right mind wouldn’t want to dress up an upcoming NFL sensations’ mother?
And hey, this gig comes with a big prize: Albeit not cash, Edmonds promises high level NFL exposure through her social media and brand promotion through professional photos, videos and event highlights as well. Picture this: What if, through this promotion, you get a shot at designing outfits or doing the makeup of big names like Mahomes or Hurts?
Win-win situation if you ask us. Still, we have to wait and watch how Edmonds’ outfit and makeup look like during the live draft. But as always, we hate to leave you guys high and dry, so what if we say that there is another big surprise waiting for Travis Hunter fans?
A father’s promise
Let’s travel back in time for this. Hunter’s name comes up and the crowd at New York explodes. Colorado finally has a Heisman winner. Still, there is something missing. You see Coach Prime, Edmonds, even Hunter’s fiancee in the crowd – but where is the man of the house? Where is Travis Hunter Sr.?
“I looked up to my dad. He was a guy I looked up to when I wanted to play football, when I was little, you know,” was something Hunter had once said. For a child who holds his father to such high regard, shouldn’t Hunter Sr. be present during one of the most important award ceremonies of Hunter’s life?
Everyone had a lot of question but we soon found out that Hunter Sr. couldn’t make it due to personal reasons. However, he did make a different promise: “I want to be there when he gets married and when he gets drafted. I’m going to watch this from home.” Now, with the drafts almost knocking at the door, we could expect the entire Hunter family to be there and watch Travis get picked.
It all finally comes full circle.
