I hate our world. “Daniels sends cease and desist to LSU after Pickett given No. 5”

For f*ck’s sake. ME! ME! ME!

See the link below. From the article:

”An attorney representing Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has informed LSU that it can no longer use his name, image and likeness, according to an Aug. 5 letter sent to Tigers athletic director Verge Ausberry, a copy of which was obtained by ESPN on Wednesday.

At the center of the dispute, according to a statement from Daniels' spokesperson to ESPN, is that the Tigers are allowing sophomore cornerback DJ Pickett to wear the No. 5 jersey that Daniels wore when he became LSU's third Heisman Trophy winner in 2023.

While Daniels' jersey hasn't been retired by the Tigers, it's the first time a player has worn No. 5 since he left the program for the NFL.

"The Daniels family is deeply disappointed and feels profoundly disrespected by LSU's decision to give Jayden's number to another player," the statement from Daniels' spokesperson said. "Jayden and his family had every reason to believe that his number would remain a meaningful part of his LSU legacy and would be honored and protected in recognition of his extraordinary contributions to the university."”

Wow

 

[JerseyLion]

Good thing nobody feels this way about #11 at PSU.

Imagine Saquon pulling this horse-a$$ over #26.

The usual BS from lawyers. There are only so many number (0-99?). That number is not retired. The problem is what?

 

[MtNittany]

LSU should put the entire practice squad in #5 jerseys.

 

[Midnighter]

Assume LOI/contracts going forward will have some clause that provides for the school to use any player's likeness for promotional purposes. We are truly in the dumbest timeline.

 

[KingLando]

Literally absurd...I hope karma finds him hard

 

[NittPicker]

This sounds like something you'd read in The Onion.

 

[leinbacker]

Clearly the NCAA will have to allow more than two digits. Imagine a ref saying "Holding, on the offense, number six thousand seven hundred and thirty two."...

 

[saturdaysarebetter]

Clearly, Daniels is not of the same character as John Cappalletti.

 

[leinbacker]

Looking at 2023's LSU roster, they had a defensive player named Laterrance Welsh, a CB, who also wore #5.

Maybe he should sue Daniels for identity theft.

They do this in Liga MX (three digits)--saw one in the Crew Leagues Cup game last week.

 

[MtNittany]

In a perfect world, cfb teams bill the nfl teams that draft early-leaving players, or players who have not attained their degree for the following:

* In-State or Out-Of-State tuition (whichever applies)
* Every meal the player ate
* Books (not that they read them)
* Constant medical care and expertise
* Hourly coaching fee

 

[Big_O]

To me, this is so absolutely absurd, it’s funny.

 

[OUIrPSU]

That’s almost as ridiculous as Ohio State thinking it can trademark the word “the.”

Oh wait…

Careful. You could get sued.

…and the lawyers just get richer….

Don’t even need karma. Those spindly legs won’t help ward off the NFL injury bug.

Jayden Daniels, LSU at odds over issuance of No. 5 to DJ Pickett

Daniels tells LSU to stop using his name, image, and likeness.

Alphanumeric lettering is next . A1 steak sauce wants to enter the NILfray .

 

[Nitt1300]

people suck- but some suck more

 

[KingLando]

Is anyone at all supporting this desperate attempt to get a number retired?

 

[BobPSU92]

DJ Pickett won't budge on No. 5 amid Jayden Daniels-LSU flap

LSU's DJ Pickett says he has no plans to change out of the No. 5 amid pushback from Jayden Daniels, with the Commanders QB saying the situation won't be a distraction.

[Lion84]

The A-Hole played 3 years at AZ State not like he was a lifer at LSU - Kiffin already said not my problem we ain’t ‘gonna give the number up.

“Wearing A1 for Penn State, wide receiver, John “Chopped Steak” Smith.”

its worse than giving yourself your nickname, thankfully the rick never got questioned

Well I think it’s asinine and stupid. But I guess his “point” is that he doesn’t want LSU to use his Name Image and Likeness to promote LSU football if the school is letting someone else wear No. 5.

I really don't see anything wrong with it. He is entitled to feel that way.

 

[op2]

If you think about it, any player, Daniels or otherwise, wearing an LSU jersey is using LSU's name, image and likeness a lot more than LSU is using the player's name, image and likeness.

And isn't Daniels using the name, image and likeness of every previous Commanders / Redskins player that wore jersey #5, of which there were many, one being Kickin' Sam Ficken?

 

[KingLando]

I really don't see anything wrong with it. He is entitled to feel that way.

He's entitled is correct--his feelings aren't justified.

 

[op2]

Some guy named Hurleman is wearing #84 for the Steelers right now. I'd say that Antonio Brown is entitled to compensation for the usage of his name, image and likeness but he'd end up just blowing the money anyway.

 

[Roar More]

Clearly, Daniels is not of the same character as John Cappalletti.

This is not at all the same as Cappy. Cappy's number was retired and, to my knowledge, it has not been used by another Penn State football player.

 

[SleepyLion]

This is not at all the same as Cappy. Cappy's number was retired and, to my knowledge, it has not been used by another Penn State football player.

It was not retired until Evan Royster moved on to the NFL. PSU announced that Royster would be the last person to wear the number, but it would be retired because of Cappy. Cappy was cool with that.

You are right. He is entitled to feel that way. And we are entitled to label him a world class a$$hole for having those feelings.
