LSU should also tell him he cannot use any logos or LSU branding either.

So when did Jayden's mom decide to take action?




Cut the cord, lady.





I'm waiting for the reaction if LSU starts a "That Kid Sam" campaign this November.....

It's about LSU no longer being able to use Jayden's likeness for advertising, promotional, or commercial use.


Surely colleges have players sign something saying their NIL can be used by the school when they allow them to put on that uniform, right? Hell I’ve had to sign such to go into certain venues.

Besides, LSU promotions using JD5’s NIL promote him as well as the school. It’s good for his marketing and he should completely rethink his stance here.

No my solution at the outset would be what Brian Kelly did. Freshman shut the frick up and wear the number you’re assigned or bye. This sport is terrible with the players running it. The adults need to he put back in charge.

Jayden proved himself in college. Had a very decent season and OROY un NFL. But yet to be a an elite NFL QB. He could use 20-30lbs and be a better QB in the pocket. Hes a dual threat but hasnt exactly panned out in NFL yet.

I could be wrong but I don’t think there is legal recourse to stop LSU using photos of Daniels in an LSU uniform.

And hell, how can you stop LSU, in recruitment and advertising, from saying “Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels played here.”?

You are just stating facts. You are not saying that he endorses LSU.

When did Jayden Daniels start claiming Skyler Greens number?

Disappointing. Respect can be given and it can be taken away.

A C&D because you don’t have enough flowers being thrown at you in life? I’ve lost respect for him. Damn. It sucks too because I REALLY liked him and thought he was a classy guy.

Should LSU have handled it differently? Maybe, but Jayden sure did go straight from 1 to 11 on this thing.

Talk about cutting your nose off to spite your face.


No matter what happens in the rest of his redskins career he had a place that would roll out the red carpet and make money whether it’s selling memorabilia coaching/ambassador for the program.


Now that’s being torched over a jersey

His legacy is cemented in college football - he won the most prestigious trophy in the sport. That's free marketing for LSU that we've forfeited for a player who at best could win the Thorpe (all due respect, hope he does and would be a hell of an accomplishment). Can you name the past five, or even two, Thorpe winners? I can't...

Who gives a shite? LSU recruits itself. See Tiger Stadium, the 2nd most national championships this century, arguably the greatest team of all time in 2019, Joe Burrow, Billy Cannon, etc.

Very decent season? He had arguably the greatest rookie season of any NFL QB ever He led my dog shite Skins to a NFC Champ game as a rook with a dog shite roster around him. He’s going to absolutely be elite if he can stay healthy.

But my brain still can’t comprehend how stupid this is of him and his legal team

Do we think Joe Burrow would be taking this route if this “happened” to him?

I’m going to say no.

I put the quotes there around happened because literally 0 harm is coming to Jayden Daniels or his mother by this. They’re losing no money, they’re losing no endorsements, they’re not being physically harmed in any way. Literally nothing is happening to them by DJ Pickett wearing this number.

I’d tell him and his momma to go frick off if I was LSU’s attorneys. You’re not entitled to a number for a school that you no longer play for.

JD never won jack shite here and his soft arse will never win jack shite in the NFL either. He is going to be on the couch in a couple years watch. CLOWN shite!

If Joe Burrow’s reps sent LSU a cease and desist over someone being issued #9, he’d be catching criticism for it too.

The only difference that JB has that would dampen the amount of criticism is because of how fondly fans remember the 2019 season.

You should go on FB and read the comments on posts from national media about this. Jayden is getting roasted across the board by a whole lot more fanbases than just LSU
