No. But they're not mutually exclusive either.

Since he has been on campus, he has been self-effacing, unassuming, and respectful in every interview and personal account I've seen/read. All of these traits are part and parcel to the most common definition of humility or humbleness.

The kid may have let his excitement and emotion get the better of him a couple of times on the field. But I don't think that's indictment enough to paint him as anything less than a class act.
