Former Houston OL Demetrius Hunter commits to Colorado

Former Houston offensive lineman Demetrius Hunter committed to Colorado out of the NCAA transfer portal, On3 has learned. He spent four years with the Cougars.

As a member of the Class of 2022, Hunter was a three-star recruit out of Orange (Texas) West Orange-Stark, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking. He was the No. 72 overall prospect in the state, the No. 33 interior offensive lineman in the class and the No. 451 overall prospect in the class.

Hunter joins a Colorado team looking for improvement in Year 4 under Deion Sanders. The team went 3-9 in its first year without Sheuder Sanders and Travis Hunter, among others.

For Sanders, losing is just as much a part of the game as winning. Of course, you certainly hope to be on the latter end of the equation more often than not.

But he provided Colorado fans with a glimpse of what they can expect going forward. That’s someone who is fully dedicated to turning things around.

“You don’t have to go easy on me, I’m a big boy. I’ve been doing this for a long time,” Sanders said. “And when I win I don’t mind a clap and when I lose I don’t mind a boo. I played this game. I know this game like the back of my hand. And I love this game and I love all the sups and downs, the ins and outs about it. I’m built for every last bit of it.

“But if anybody’s built to reconcile and to get this back on course it’s me. And I will do it if it’s the last thing I do on our Earth. Trust me when I tell you. This was the Last Supper.”
