Luke Hunter (born September 27, 2038) is an American football safety who is currently preparing to enter the professional ranks. He played college football for University of Illinois (UIUC) and has declared his intent to enter the professional ranks next season.

Early years

Luke Hunter was born on September 27, 2038, just shy of two years after his older brother Cam Hunter. Whereas Cam was always the analytical mind of the pair, Luke was far more physically gifted. Luke tried his hand at just about every sport he could get himself into, and excelled at pretty much all of them. Any soccer team he joined regularly found themselves in contention for national titles, he routinely led any basketball team he was on to state championships, and he racked up medals galore in various track and field events.

However, no matter how much success he had in other sports, football was always Luke's true love. From peewee to high school, Luke played both sides of the ball, primarily at running back and safety. While Luke was certainly productive as a running back, his real talent was on the defensive side of the ball. After setting state records for interceptions as a sophomore, opponents simply stopped throwing the ball anywhere near him. It didn't stop him from recording interceptions of course, but it was enough to prevent him from re-setting his own record as an upperclassman. This kind of effect on the game netted the younger Hunter brother elite prospect ratings and offers from just about every school in the nation.

College career

Ultimately, Luke decided to join his older brother Cam at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Cam's knack for team management was already having a noticeable effect on recruitment for the historically moribund program despite still being a student, but the addition of an elite prospect like Luke caused something of a renaissance for the Illini. The presence of Luke brought in interest from several other elite prospects, many of whom committed to Illinois after speaking to Cam about the program.

Luke spearheaded a defensive resurgeance for the Illini, routinely leading the nation in interceptions and even leading all safeties in sacks and tackles for loss. With the do-it-all safety patrolling the back end, the Illinois defense could play aggressively and became known as one of the toughest defensive units in the FBS. Unsurprisingly, this kind of success (combined with prodding from his older brother) led Luke to declare for pros after his junior year.
