Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart is a legitimate candidate to win the Heisman Trophy in 2024. As a result, he carries a national brand and signed one of the coolest (if not the coolest) NIL deals in the country.
Dart reached an agreement with Nicholas Air, a private jet company based out of Oxford, Mississippi.
The deal, which was formally announced at the end of February, gives him access to a fleet of seven private jets. They range from 356 cubic feet of cabin space to 1,884 cubic feet of cabin space.
He can use the jets for “travel, training and philanthropy.”
Further details of the contract have not been revealed, but it’s a pretty sweet deal for a 20-year-old college student! Dart can fly all over the country without worrying about the logistics.
The Rebels recently put a pause on spring practice as the university goes on spring break.
Dart posted a life update to TikTok with a series of pictures from his last year or so, including a selfie with Odell Beckham Jr. The caption reads: “U Look Happier”
Another one of the photos provides a glimpse at his ground-breaking NIL deal with Nicholas Air. The jets on which he is now able to fly are rather luxurious!
To make it even cooler, Dart’s planes (which are Nicholas’ planes) are the same planes on which his head coach flies. Lane Kiffin often shares cryptic mid-flight posts from the jet.
In fact, Kiffin flew out to Los Angeles on Nicholas Air shortly after Dart hit the transfer portal. So in a way, it’s all coming full-circle.
They are top tier!
Dart is going to be pretty busy over the next few months while getting ready for The Last Dance, so he may not be able to use the jet until summer break. However, Ole Miss’ starting quarterback needs to get somewhere fast, he will get there in style!
