larrybrownsports.comOle Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss on Friday said he disagreed with first-year LSU coach Lane Kiffin's recent comments that Ole Miss' past embrace of Confederate symbols made recruiting Black players more difficult. "Me, personally, I don't agree," Chambliss said.
"I don't think that what he said was truthful. " Kiffin coached at Ole Miss from 2020 to 2025 and left for LSU before the College Football Playoff. Chambliss, who played under Kiffin last season, said he still thinks highly of the coach and holds no hard feelings about the departure.
" He said he asked his family whether they trusted the people they met and whether they would keep their word. "They said, 'I feel like this is the right place,'" Chambliss said. "And my mom's super religious, too, and she just had a good feeling. We prayed on it, and that was the main thing.
" Kiffin will return to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on Sept. 12 as LSU's head coach. Pete Golding, previously a defensive coordinator on Kiffin's staff, is now Ole Miss head coach.
