At the NFLPA Rookie Premiere, Travis Hunter took a moment to give credit where credit is due. In a wholesome interaction with Deion Sanders Jr., aka "Bucky", the Colorado wide receiver opened up about how essential Bucky has been to building the public image of the team, and how his YouTube hustle helped inspire Hunter's own digital rise.

Known for running Well Off Media, Deion Jr. has become the unofficial heartbeat of Colorado football's online presence. Over the last two years, he's turned the program into a viral content machine, helping fans connect to players beyond the field. From locker room moments to draft day highlights, he's documented it all, and the results are undeniable. The channel has racked up over 583,000 subscribers, helping usher in a new level of transparency and hype around Coach Prime's program.
