Travis Hunter's fiancée Leanna Lenee continues Heisman campaign for Colorado star as Ashton Jeanty & others start to close in
Travis Hunter has been an absolute force this season as a two-way star for the Colorado Buffaloes. His fiancee, Leanna Lenee, has supported his bid for college football’s most prestigious honor, the Heisman Trophy, as he races against top contenders like Ashton Jeanty.
Jeanty’s numbers are impressive, leading the nation with 192.7 rushing yards per game and 23 touchdown runs. However, that’s not stopped Lenee from promoting Hunter’s Heisman campaign.
On Thursday, Travis shared a video capturing his determined spirit off the field and his zeal for the Heisman.
“I don’t see nobody but me, who I’m gon’ lose to?”
Leanna commented with a simple but telling trophy emoji, “🏆,” highlighting her belief in his potential.
Earlier in the season, she even called for his Heisman win after Colorado took down Baylor in its Big 12 opener.
“Heisman him NOW,” she commented on his post.
Ashton Jeanty vs. Travis Hunter: Heisman battle heating up
The Heisman race is getting personal as top contenders Travis Hunter and Ashton Jeanty bring a competitive edge to their campaigns. This week, Boise State running back Jeanty responded to Hunter’s confident Heisman declaration with a bold statement of his own.
“I feel like I’m the best player in college football.” Jeanty said. “I watch Travis Hunter … He’s an incredible player.”
Meanwhile, two-way star Travis Hunter has dazzled for the Buffaloes with nine offensive touchdowns and game-changing defensive stats, including two interceptions. He has led Coach Prime’s Colorado to a 7-2 record this season.
Hunter has been a crucial element in Colorado’s success after a disappointing 4-8 season last year. His 856 receiving yards and clutch plays have kept the Buffaloes in Big 12 championship contention and probably a spot in the College Football Playoff.
Meanwhile, Jeanty is on pace to record a top-10 rushing season in college football history. With a few games left, the Heisman race remains wide open. Jeanty’s record-breaking speed and Hunter’s versatility make this one of the most exciting Heisman battles in recent memory.
