Terrible look. Guy is a great player and I enjoyed his time here. Pulled for him in the NFL. If he is the one truly behind this, he can kick rocks

I like the kid but that’s a major sense of entitlement on his part. It’s a bad look.

Did they honestly think no one was ever going to wear the #5 again?

This comes out right when the QB series on Netflix is releasing and shows how controlling his Mom is. She’s his manager and agent. I don think JD has much say so in his life

This what happens when you "unofficially" retire a number. Never should have been done with Burrow tbh. Maybe for the following season... but indefinitely? No

Easiest thing to do is honor them by putting their name inside of the stadium after they leave for the NFL.

What other SEC or Major college program unofficially takes a number off the roster for an individual award? Its stupid

“Jayden and his family”…. His mom. It’s his mom.

Not sure what’s worse: Jayden’s camp pulling this move or the grown men on here suddenly trashing every thing he ever did for the program. Seems like a bit of overreaction on both sides…

It's what happens when LSU drags their feet after players pull of winning awards like the Heisman. Why wouldn't you already have a Burrow and Daniels statue to go alone with Cannon's, or at least their names up in the stadium? Never any official words on the jersey retirements either so everyone is clueless and then you have retards like Kelly that promises a number of a Heisman winner to a kid.

I don’t respect this one bit. JD5 should be ashamed of himself.

Well for once, for what it is worth, the Twitter mob is actually on "Team LSU" in this case...like about 100-1. And many believe his mom has a lot to do with it.

First time Jayden has ever disappointed me. Didn’t think he was the kind of guy who would be a diva about a number. He needs to stop letting his Mom run his entire life.

7 isn’t available to use as a recruiting tool because of the whole 7 and 18 traditions. Most of the rest of the numbers are taken by players already on the roster. You usually only have 2-3 single digit numbers a year available

It’s a completely unforced error by Jayden. Anyone with half a brain cell could have told him this would be a bad look.

He’s a Heisman Trophy winner and arguably a top 10 SEC QB of all time. I say it’s completely fine to feel this way about your number.

He can feel however he wants, lol. His feelings aren’t LSU’s problem.

Welp, congrats JD, just turned an entire fanbase against you for no reason. Soft as shite. He should forever be grateful for where LSU got him. Pathetic

I in no way think this will be a bad look for LSU. Only really Jayden comes off as petty.

I think LSU will handle this pretty fast, our new AD will work something quick

LSU should just refer to him as QB #5 just like the old NCAA football video games before NIL allowed EA to use real names.

When speaking of the program’s Heisman winners: Billy Cannon, Joe Burrow, and QB #5
