Ole Miss Football’s Surprising Rise: Can They Silently Shock the Nation This Season?
Someone I talked to at Ole Miss over the summer could barely contain himself, raving about Austin Simmons, the two-sport athlete (he also plays baseball) who was set to take Dart’s place. Simmons was a great team player, I was told, and had been a practice star for Ole Miss over the previous year. I thought he would seize the starting job and never look back.Â
It didn’t work out that way. Simmons started two games and played well enough, putting good numbers on low-grade competition in the form of Georgia State and Kentucky. But an injury opened the door for his backup, Trinidad Chambliss, a transfer from the best program in Division II football, Ferris State.
