Who is Antwann Hill Jr.? Getting to Know Deion Sanders’ Latest Signing
Antwann Hill, a talented 6-foot-5, 215-pound quarterback hails from Warner Robbins. Hill’s innate skills have propelled him to the forefront of high school football. As a sophomore, he guided Houston County to an impressive 10-3 record and a berth in the regional quarterfinals of Georgia’s playoffs.
Antwann Hill’s achievements are nothing short of remarkable, with a jaw-dropping 70.5% completion rate, 3,663 yards, 40 TDs, and a mere 3 INTs. To top it off, he’s already left his mark on school history by setting a record for completion percentage and total completion.
According to Hayes Fawcett of On3 Sports, Antwann Hill Jr. highlighted the pivotal factors behind his commitment to the Colorado Buffaloes, under the guidance of Deion Sanders. He emphasized the exceptional communication from the coaching staff. This continuous engagement signaled genuine care and the desire for him to carry the torch after Shedeur’s tenure. Antwann’s trust in Deion Sanders’ honesty and the opportunity presented convinced him to seize this chance.
“What led me there is, first, their communication. They always communicated with me since the time 12:00 am hit that morning on Aug 1st. To sum it up I can tell they really care about me and want me to take over the program when Shedeur leaves…So whenever coach Prime said that, I knew he was being 100% honest with me and I knew I would be a fool not take this opportunity that coach Prime had provided me with.”
Bryce Underwood had a Warm Interest In Colorado
Antwann Hill’s prompt commitment provides Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes with a foundation to plan around, amid speculations about top 2025 recruit Bryce Underwood. Bryce Underwood, the topmost-rated QB in the 2025 cycle, stands at 6 feet 3.5 tall and weighs 205 pounds. The 2025 No. 1 recruit has visited Colorado and met Coach Prime, signaling a potential interest in the program.
Bryce is hailed as the potential successor to Caleb Williams and stands as one of the most sought-after talents in the nation, boasting offers from over 35 Division 1 schools. His top contenders are programs such as Alabama, Michigan, LSU, and Colorado. Although, with Hill’s addition, Bryce’s trip to the Boulder might have taken a U-turn.
