Lawyer that has been representing all the players for extra years says Daniels will lose

And is being ridiculous
Jayden Daniels and his lawyer have no legal claim to exclusive control over the jersey number the QB wore for two seasons at LSU. This is a ridiculous claim and is a terrible look.
The cease-and-desist really shows how absurd this is. It purportedly demands that LSU stop using Daniels’ name, image, and likeness, citing a contractual window that expired 180 days after his final college game, which closed long ago. It appears to be an emotional reaction, not a cause of action.
Reassigning a number to another athlete does not constitute use of Daniels’ NIL. The letter intends to be leverage. It fails in that respect. In reality, it's an attempt to convert a personal preference into a legal threat after the contractual rights already lapsed.
Lane Kiffin says the number was promised to DJ Pickett during recruiting. Schools regularly make those commitments. Invoking an expired NIL clause is weak at best. The irony is that this only hurts Jayden's NIL value.

JD5 just needs to worry about trying to play more than 10 games this year

This is a matter that should have been handled with a phone call. Putting this out in the public is a very bad look for Jayden. Even if he was in the right it would be a bad look.

Its a terrible look for Jayden and its 100% being pushed by his mother IMO. It is entirely stupid and is going to go nowhere. JD5 needs to concentrate on rebounding this year. He just lost his LT so he needs to concentrate on his NFL career and not what LSU is doing....again, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and believe this is his mother pushing this but it is still a terrible look and if they were that "upset or disappointed" they should have just had a phone call. The number wasn't given to a scrub and was promised by the previous staff not Kiffin.
