Well, it’s not wrong when people say younger siblings often look up to their older siblings and follow in their footsteps. And Jaxson Dart’s little brother is no exception. Following in his older brother’s footsteps, he’s chasing excellence and achieving recognition. Why wouldn’t he? This season, Jaxson’s performance showed why he is the one people take inspiration from; he not only led the Rebels to a 10-3 record but also, surprisingly, secured a first-round draft pick with the New York Giants at number 25. Imagine this guy was supposed to go out in the 3rd or 4th round. Now, his brother is also finding success, having already received four college offers. Looks like greatness truly runs in their family.
At 6’1 and 175 lbs, Draper’s (Utah) WR Diesel Dart is an explosive threat to his opponents. And there’s a reason why 4 teams are showing interest in him. Last season, he credited his team with 44 total tackles with just one interception. That’s not the end. Diesel also shined on the offense with 23 receptions for 351 yards and a touchdown to take Corner Canyon to the Utah 6A state championship crown. And the result? He is one of the raiders of San Diego State, Ole Miss, BYU, and one recent addition, Arizona State.
Now, even Diesel Dart is pretty excited after receiving this offer, as he hit IG with the news and said, “Extremely excited and grateful to say that I have received an offer from Arizona #gobearcats.” Even though he isn’t getting out of high school till 2027, his skills are gaining a lot of hype. And even Corner Canyon defensive coordinator Cody Gardner sees it as he gives out a bold statement on Diesel’s gameplay, taking it to X: “I’m biased. But this dude is going to explode this summer. P4 guys, you better start building a relationship.” No wonder teams are going gaga over him.
But among all 4, only 1 is putting up an extra effort to knock him down, and that’s the BYU Cougars. Look, over the next 18 months, keep a close eye on Dart. BYU has a strong relationship with the Dart family, having been the first major program to offer Jaxson Dart a scholarship. This offer propelled Jaxson to national stardom, earning him five-star status before he committed to USC. When Jaxson entered the transfer portal, BYU again pursued him. While they couldn’t bring him to Provo, the coaching staff retains a strong relationship with the family.
Now, we all know how family ties work in recruitment, right? We all saw Dylan Raiola heading to Nebraska, ditching programs like Georgia. So, how can we miss out on Jaxson Dart’s Ole Miss Rebels and Lane Kiffin, who’s also rooting high for Diesel?
Jaxson Dart’s former team is making push for his brother
Jaxson Dart’s Ole Miss legacy is legendary. He quarterbacked the Rebels to unprecedented success, including consecutive 10-win seasons in 2023 and 2024. Now, his younger brother, Diesel, is following in his footsteps as he received an Ole Miss offer, potentially starting a family dynasty in Oxford.
Well, Diesel’s impressive highlights have caught the eye of Lane Kiffin and his staff, making Ole Miss the second FBS school to offer, after San Diego State. The Rebels clearly see potential that others might have missed. And let’s not forget Kiffin’s history of developing NFL receivers. Yes, that’s right. If you don’t, Lane Kiffin coached first-team All-American wide receivers at USC, who are Mike Williams and Dwayne Jarrett. On top of that, Rebels themselves have exceptional receivers like Tre Harris, Jordan Watkins, and A.J. Brown, who made significant contributions to the team.
Looking toward the future, Jaxson Dart is confident Ole Miss is poised for even greater success. After the Gator Bowl, Jaxson reflected on the Rebels’ promising future, highlighting the team’s significant growth under his leadership. “This program’s on the rise,” Dart said after the Gator Bowl. “They’re going to continue to get better, and I think it’s just a place where people really want to play. A lot of excitement and momentum is going for it, and like I said, I think it’s going to continue to improve and continue to be one of the best programs in the country.” So, that means there’s a chance that Diesel can be a part of that improvement.
And even Diesel Dart’s pretty excited about getting an offer from Lane Kiffin’s team, as he hit IG and said, “Extremely excited and grateful to say that I have been offered by Ole Miss#hottytoddy.” But what made things even more prominent was his father’s comment under their post, “Darty in the SIP!!! .” He could have used that phrase at any point in the last three years, yet it remains relevant. It’s clear that both his efforts and the supportive environment have been crucial to his success.
Now, let’s just wait and see which team becomes Diesel’s ultimate destination.
