Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart, a Heisman Trophy contender, is facing explosive cheating allegations from his ex-girlfriend on TikTok.
Dart’s high school sweetheart, Lola Sexton, previously took to TikTok to confirm the allegations against him earlier this month. But now she’s back with more details, and it doesn’t shine a positive light on one of the nation’s top signal callers.
“I really didn’t want to have to do this, but some stuff has been brought to my attention and I just feel like I have to clear the air and share my side of the story,” Sexton said in a TikTok that now has over 1.4 million views. “So yes, he was cheating on me for a little over a year and a half from what I know I found out from an anonymous text message, whoever you are.”
Sexton said that she had no idea about the cheating. But she claims that both his teammates and coaches were aware.
Dart and Sexton dated for over four years. And she claims that she would pay for flights to watch all his games and do his homework for him on Sundays so that he could lift on Monday mornings.
Despite the alleged betrayal, she took a positive stance toward it all.
“We’ve been together since I was 15, we were in high school together. We grew up together. I hope he has a good, healthy season,” Sexton said. “I just want everyone to just move on I can confidently say that I know amazing things are coming my way and I know we both learned. I learned a lot and we just need to let go and just move on.”
Now, Dart would hardly be the first high-profile college athlete to cheat on a significant other. In fact, it often feels like that’s the norm.
But Sexton’s description of things does him no favors. And it causes a distraction for a Rebels team with national title hopes.
For his sake, and the team’s sake, they should hope Sexton is genuine about just moving on.
