SUWANEE, Ga. - The county's top college football recruit from Suwanee's Collins Hill High School shocked many when he announced plans to play at Jackson State University, coached by former Atlanta two-sport star Deion Sanders.
Travis Hunter, a two-way player rated as the No. 1 national recruit by 247Sports, was previously committed to play at Florida State University.
Hunter listed some football legends that call Historically Black Colleges and Universities their alma mater as inspiration for him to change his commitment to Jackson State, which is based in Jackson, Mississippi.
Hunter expressed excitement to play for the former Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta Braves star, "Coach Prime." Hunter is currently the only new signee listed on Jackson.
