Trinidad Chambliss has a whole list of NFL QBs he looks up to, but got the chance to meet only one of them in real life.
The Ole Miss QB recently opened up on the NFL QBs he looks upto.
Chambliss's playing style gets compared the most to Baker Mayfield, which is something he agrees with. But he still hasn't had the chance to meet him in person.
However, he did get a chance to catch up with Tim Tebow post Sugar Bowl. In his recent interview, Chambliss reflected back on his season so far with the Rebels, and one highlight on his season was Tebow offering the Rebels flowers for the win against Georgia.
Chambliss on his brief meet with Tim Tebow
"I have not," Chambliss said when asked if he’s spoken to any of those players.
“I’ve talked to Tim Tebow. He gave me, he gave the team our flowers after we beat Georgia. He said that it was a great game, probably one of the best college ball games he’s been to. But he just is a great guy, giving us compliments, and just a really good guy.”
There is a slight chance that Chambliss could be playing against the QB he looks up to in the NFL this very season if the court doesn't approve his preliminary injunction for an additional year of eligibility.
That said, the QB is doubling down on Oxford, standing his ground in the eligibility battle.
"Definitely want to come back and still progress as a player. Being in Oxford, being in that community, and being in the facility at Ole Miss, it’s just something like no other, it's a family atmosphere, and I just love it.”
Only time will tell how the verdict turns out to be for Chambliss.
