Hunt started his college career as a safety at Cornell before transferring to Houston Christian in 2022 and making the switch to outside linebacker after gaining size and more speed.
Hunt’s 34 1/4″ arms and 128″ leap in the broad jump are on par with talented NFL pass rushers Myles Garrett, Danielle Hunter, Will McDonald, and Odafe Oweh.
