nah. The players don't own the uniform or the numbers. It's easy.

DJ Pickett just included it in his “negotiations to return”

Just a negotiation ploy as both sides look for a compromise.

I am not sure what legal basis you think JD has in this case, but there will be no negotiation. He probably made an offhand comment about LSU issuing his old number and mommy went and paid some attorneys to send this. He is wiping out millions in potential endorsement revenue by burning a loyal fanbase over a petty issue. He should have handled this on the back-channels.

They do have a policy that’s pretty clear , maybe you should educate yourself on it

you dumb frick


I know what the written policy is, dumbass. Do you honestly think no one has wanted #9 for football in the past 6-7 years? We know of at least one baseball player who asked for #3 and was told no. Pickett was told in 2025 that he couldn't have #5. My entire point is that LSU has a written policy stating these numbers should be available BUT they have not been letting anyone use them. Kiffin wouldn't even comment on whether or not he would give someone #9. I have no problem with #5 being used, but 9 should be available as well. Any baseball player who wants to wear 3, should be allowed.

As I said, LSU has some fault in this, b/c they aren't enforcing their own rules.

LSU's written policy states the head coach gets to make that call.

wrong. The number is available, and it's up to the coach (not current or former players).

LSU told Daniels that his number wouldn’t get used then they let someone use it.


Who told him that?? Woodward? BK? Probably nobody

Burrow and Daniels were both told their numbers weren't going to be reused after winning the Heisman. How are you even arguing this at this point? Plenty of shite to argue here; that isn't it.

Very childish behavior from the Jayden camp
I wish that everytime I did something retarded in my life that a bunch of people would say it's not actually me, it's "my camp"

Like how do I get to do this thing where you're a grown man but you have no responsibility for your actions?

Jayden's a big boy and he hasn't fired anyone so he clearly either asked for the suit or he was in favor of it.

I suspect Joe and Jayden were both told that, yes, there is a written policy, but we are going to honor you by not issuing your jersey for the five year period. Maybe BK made the promise, maybe Scott.
Lane also says that as part of Pickett's recruitment, he was promised the number 5.
In both cases, LSU made promises.
Lane chose to honor the promises made to the guy on his roster. Whether of not Lane personally made the promise, I respect that he honored it.
Don't know what to do about any promises to Jayden, but the way his camp handled it so publicly, makes if difficult to lose sleep over.

His mom just comes off as a selfish bitch. Watching her on the Quarterback show on Netflix with Jayden Daniels in it. She is totally full of herself and I hate to say but Jayden lets her do it.

Is anyone shocked that race baiting grifting piece of shite Ryan Clark would have a bad take on this? His take on this is a demonstration of exactly why his dumb arse got fired from ESPN.

I'm pretty sure his picture is all over the locker rooms and meeting rooms. Daniels #5 LSU Jerseys are probably for sale at various venders.

I'm not saying LSU is in the wrong. I'm just saying this new generation of NIL alums may test the legal waters to continue to receive a cut. This is untested as far as I am aware.
