Deion Sanders Jr. pushed back after Eli Manning suggested Travis Hunter’s preparation at Colorado was lacking, calling Manning “lied to.” The exchange could shift public perception and spark betting interest in Hunter-related prop markets—expect potential movement on targets/receptions futures if bettors side with the Sanders camp about Hunter’s readiness.
The dispute began after a former NFL quarterback made comments questioning the level of preparation and development Travis Hunter received while at Colorado. The remarks gained traction after a viral Instagram post from a member of the Sanders family referenced those comments and suggested the quarterback had been misinformed about Hunter’s readiness.
Deion Sanders Jr. publicly defended Hunter and the Colorado program, saying Eli Manning had been "lied to" about Hunter’s training and development. The response was conveyed on social media and quickly amplified among college football fans, fueling debate about how the Buffaloes prepare players for the next level.
So far there is no firm, public evidence proving misinformation or deliberate misrepresentation. The exchange reflects a broader, ongoing scrutiny of the Colorado program since its high-profile coaching change. Team staff and supporters have frequently pushed back against critics, and this episode is another flashpoint in that larger narrative.
Beyond personalities, the argument touches on reputations, player evaluation and the role of media commentary in shaping public opinion. For the Sanders family and Colorado fans, the dispute is framed as defending a player’s work ethic and the program’s integrity. For neutral observers, it highlights how quickly social media posts can escalate into sustained controversies.
Narrative-driven swings can move prop markets even when on-field facts are unchanged. Bettors might see increased interest in player-specific markets — for example, targets, receptions or yardage props for Travis Hunter — if public sentiment shifts toward believing he was well-prepared. Team game lines are less likely to shift solely on this debate, but increased public betting on Hunter props could create short-term line movement or value opportunities for contrarian bettors.
