00:04 Hello, my name is Skyler Girard of Fan Nation, the Grove Report, and

00:07 here's your latest football news.

00:09 Now the Ole Miss Rebels quarterback Jackson Dart was named to another

00:14 Jackson Dart, among 35 other QBs nationally, was added to the Davey O'Brien

00:19 class of 2023 on Tuesday by the Davey O'Brien Foundation.

00:23 Now every quarterback that is in the class is officially a candidate to receive

00:26 the 2023 Davey O'Brien Trophy, which is awarded annually to the number one

00:30 quarterback in the nation.

00:32 This is the oldest and most prestigious quarterback award in college football.

00:36 Dart is set to finish the year with a career high in his second season under

00:39 Coach Lane Kiffin as he's thrown for 2,080 yards, 14 touchdowns, and four

00:44 interceptions through eight games.

00:46 Dart has also rushed for 326 yards and seven touchdowns on 85 carries.

00:51 Ole Miss' offense that currently ranks third in the SEC is now scoring a total

00:56 offense, and he has led this team to a 7-1 record, which is good enough for them

01:01 to land second in SEC West.

01:03 Dart has also landed the watch list for the Maxwell Manning and Johnny Unitas

01:07 awards.
