The strange saga that is Tim Tebow’s professional baseball career has landed him in Columbia, where he’ll start his season for the Fireflies – the New York Mets’ single-A affiliate.

That means the former Florida quarterback will play his home games in a city that once hated him during his time with the Gators.

However, on Tuesday, Tebow had nothing but positive things to say about the Gamecocks and Williams-Brice Stadium.

In an interview with The State, Tebow said he thinks the Gamecocks’ stadium, which is close to the ballpark where he’ll play his home games this year, is one of the most underrated experiences in all of college football:

“I love that stadium, actually. I love it when they play ‘Space Odyssey’ and ‘Sandstorm’ and all that stuff,” he said. “I think it’s one of the more fun, underrated stadiums out there. That’s for sure. That place gets rowdy, especially that right end zone.”

He also had plenty of nice things to say about South Carolina coach Will Muschamp, who served as Florida’s head coach from 2011 to 2014. He said he expects Muschamp and the Gamecocks to continue building a solid program in 2017:

“There’s differences when you go from defensive coordinator to head coach,” Tebow said. “I think he’s learning on the job. I think he has improved. I think he had some really good seasons at Florida. He was able to learn from some of the highs and lows and continued to develop a really good defense. I think he has a quarterback that has a chance to be kind of special and he’s getting recruits. In the SEC, that’s not easy.”

Tebow will be the biggest thing to happen to minor-league baseball since Michael Jordan, so the Fireflies are sure to sell plenty of tickets when he’s in the lineup.

Still, though, it’s smart of the ex-Gator star to pay respect to the hometown Gamecocks and their ravenous fanbase.
