Tim Tebow became the sixth player to join the Florida Ring of Honor on Saturday, as the crowd inside Ben Hill Griffin Stadium chanted “Tebow! Tebow!”
Tebow, who won the Heisman Trophy and two national championships as Florida’s quarterback between 2006-09, was honored after the first quarter in the LSU-Florida game.
