Look, I can't tell you WHY it matters, but I can tell you SOMETIMES it matters what number a player is wearing on his chest. It just does. Could be the same number as someone the player admires. Could be a number they've always worn. Could be their “favorite” number, whatever that means. What I know is that sometimes, the number is the most important thing.  And when that happens? Lawd, the lengths one will go to get in on that number.  We chat about the craziness that surrounds jersey numbers! Scott & A will be at Dragon*Con in Atlanta, GA this year! Come out and see us over Labor Day Weekend!   — Slices is created by Scott Sigler and A B Kovacs — Produced by Steve Riekeberg — Production Assistance by Allie Press — Copyright 2026 by Empty Set Entertainment  But Daddy, I want number 8!

Jayden Daniels graduated from LSU in 2023. Currently a Washington Commander, he sent a cease & desist letter to his alma mater this month, possibly as a protest since the football program gave a new player “his” jersey number.  Did LSU fail to keep its promise to Jayden Daniels? Does LSU have an obligation to keep its promise to DJ Pickett, current cornerback and wearer of jersey number 5? It's more complicated than it seems.

Come out and see us over Labor Day Weekend!   — Slices is created by Scott Sigler and A B Kovacs — Produced by Steve Riekeberg — Production Assistance by Allie Press — Copyright 2026 by Empty Set Entertainment  Is a five on any other player still just a number?  I get why some folks might get their knickers in a twist after Jayden was promised his number would not get reassigned.
