Trinidad Chambliss sues NCAA over eligibility ruling

Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA after his request for a sixth year of eligibility was denied due to a lack of medical documentation regarding his respiratory issues during the 2022 season. His legal team is seeking a preliminary injunction to allow him to play in the 2026 season while the university plans to appeal the NCAA’s decision. Chambliss’s attorney criticized the NCAA’s handling of the situation and indicated further legal action may be pursued. Ole Miss narrowly missed advancing to the NCAA semifinal after losing to Miami in the Fiesta Bowl.
