Jackson State has pulled off one of the greatest recruiting accomplishments in college football history.
Travis Hunter, the number one recruit in America on Rivals, shocked the college football world Wednesday when he announced that he’s committing to play for Deion Sanders and the Tigers. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
Hunter is capable of playing multiple positions on the field and is the definition of a freak of nature.

It’s not an understatement at all to say this is a recruiting accomplishment that would have been impossible to imagine before it happened.
The top-ranked player in America is headed to an FCS school! It’s not like a four or a five star player is headed to the FCS!
He’s the top-ranked player in the country. He could have gone anywhere he wanted. Instead of playing for a traditional power, he’s headed to Jackson State to play for Deion Sanders.

What an absolutely insane time for college football and fans everywhere. Deion Sanders is going to have a squad in 2022 at Jackson State.

Let us know in the comments how you think Hunter will do at JSU!
UPDATE: A previous version of this story included a false report that Hunter received a $1.5 million NIL deal. It has been updated to be more accurate.
