A cease-and-desist letter is rarely a good thing---especially when it’s delivered by a recent Heisman Trophy winner from your university Aug 14, 2026

Show notes

-Jayden Daniels is pretty PISSED that LSU allowed cornerback DJ Pickett the chance to wear his No. 5 jersey, which hasn’t been worn by

anyone at LSU since his departure to the NFL---yet, the jersey had never been officially retired. So who is in the wrong here?

-Pickett wore No. 3 last year and was an All-American, and wanted to change his number to 5—which has Daniels saying LSU no longer

has rights to any NIL of his and to stop using it

-And, ROLL CALL (sponsored by Madsen’s Bowling & Billiards): where are Breakers listening from today?

‘coach speak’ than ever before
