Y’all are some of wild, emotional women with these posts after having all of yesterday to process it and a night to sleep on it. Woke up to see that probably the greatest figure in LSU sports passed away. And these are the threads we’re starting? The posts we’re making
It really shouldn't be all that surprising, considering what this board looks like the first second LSU trails in any sport.
They are so emotional and ridiculous that it makes it seem like rationale people are sticking up for Daniel's, whenever almost nobody is.

I kind of like the way LSU is playing. Don’t say anything. They know they are winning.
Like a dad patting his 5-year-old on the back after a tantrum. "Relax son, It's gonna be okay. Now get out of our bedroom so I can make you a little brother. "

If it was a new demand, sure. It isn’t. He was promised the number during his recruitment. We should honor that promise.
Then we should never do it again.
Fair point.. this has not been handled well by anyone.. I just don't get why there is not equal blame going around here... JD5 and DJ were both promised something.. DJ could have stood down, JD5 could have stood down..DJ has the leverage to leave if he doesn't get what he wants and used it.. JD5 really had no leverage to do anything other than what he did.. Yes JD5 should have kept it close and just been mad behind the scenes and he definitely got bad advice there.. Don't understand how the "its only a number" argument only applies to the Heisman trophy winner and not the Soph, that makes no sense.... Also LSU could have came out and said something acknowledging that 2 promises were made... lastly why is it a good idea as a program to give into demands of current players or recruits if the LSU brand is bigger than any one player

I did like the subtle jab they took on social media. Posted pics last night from yesterday's practice and the first pic was of Pickett in the #5 jersey

But what if a high up told him they would never use it?
Well that person is probably among the high ups who got fired by LSU last December.
If Jayden was that worried about nobody ever wearing #5 again, then he should have asked Woodward or BK to put it in writing and make an official statement. Otherwise any unofficial "understandings" with a previous regime are subject to change when new leadership takes over.
But then if they made an official statement retiring #5, then BK wouldn't have been able to promise it to Pickett during his recruitment.

You should tell him to get out of your head.
Posted on 8/14/26 at 11:15 am to TheHarahanian
We shouldn't respond at all. Let him be a bitch. We r under no force to return anything, or retire anything. The trophy copy is OURS. Legally possessed
Yake his name of...who cares. Put "qb" in place of his name

Seems to be honoring a promise more than a demand. But maybe honoring your word isn’t that important to you.
Posted on 8/14/26 at 11:25 am to TheHarahanian
I don’t mind 20 new posts about Skip Bertman, but Daniel’s? Not worth it.

What if LSU promised JD5 to not issue #5?? .. But maybe honoring your word to Heisman trophy winners isn't that important to you... especially if you have a Soph demanding something else

I suggest adding Dave Brubeck's "Take 5" to the pregame playlist.

come to LSU and they will honor all demands to keep you from transferring
A promise was made prior to Kiffin arriving and he kept the promise, your take is incredibly stupid.

Well, we know one of those things is true. The other is what if conjecture on your part.

Accurate at this point, but it does not take a lot of effort to read in between the lines here and figure out what really happened...there was definitely a reason CBK did not issue Pickett 5 last year.. the 1st LSU Heisman winners number is retired, the 2nd LSU Heisman winner is on record saying he was told by LSU they would not issue his number.. The 3rd LSU Heisman winner was told them same as the 2nd? or is he just upset over nothing ?..what makes sense ?

How dare a 20 year old take a grown mans word!

Im ready to move on from Jayden. He can frick off. I don’t care if we ever talk about him again honestly. He and the whole BK era can just no longer exist to me and I’ll be fine with it.

Yet you still decided to click on the 101st post about this.

There’s nothing for LSU to handle. Comply with the C&D, completely disassociate with JD, and move on. The only party that will suffer is JD.
