This is as much an indictment of the judicial system as it is college sports

Ole Miss QB Trinidad Chambliss cleared to play in 2026 after Mississippi Supreme Court denies NCAA appeal​

Chambliss has won his bid for another year of eligibility​

Trinidad Chambliss is set to play in the 2026 season after a Mississippi Supreme Court judge denied the NCAA's appeal of his preliminary injunction on Friday. That means the Rebels' quarterback has defeated the NCAA in his fight for another year of eligibility.

The legal battle started after Chambliss, coming off a breakout campaign with Ole Miss in 2025, petitioned the NCAA for a medical waiver that would give him another year of eligibility. Chambliss argued that -- because respiratory issues forced him to miss the 2022 season at Ferris State -- he should receive a medical redshirt.

The NCAA denied the petition, saying the evidence suggested Ferris State sat Chambliss for "development needs and our team's competitive circumstances."

After the rejection, Chambliss sued the NCAA in Lafayette County Chancery Court, and he was granted a preliminary injunction on Feb. 12. The NCAA then filed an appeal of the injunction, which was denied on Friday.

When the NCAA first submitted its appeal, Chambliss' attorney, Tom Mars, said it was destined to fail. Mars claimed the precedent had already been set in the case of a former West Virginia running back who successfully argued that limiting benefits to players violates federal law.

"Everyone remembers when the NCAA famously appealed to the Supreme Court in the (Shawne) Alston case and got their teeth knocked out by Justice Kavanaugh," Mars told ESPN. "I expect the NCAA to be spitting Chiclets in this appeal as well."
