On Thursday, the entire sports world had its attention on one story as Jayden Daniels' sudden feud against LSU. Late on Wednesday night, it was reported that Jayden Daniels' lawyers sent a letter to LSU, telling the school to stop using their client's Name, Image, and Likeness.

The bizarre saga reportedly is centered around Jayden Daniels feeling as if his former school slighted him. This Summer, LSU allowed defensive back DJ Pickett to wear the number 5 as Lane Kiffin and the Tigers staff learned that it was promised to him during the recruiting process. LSU retired Heisman winner Billy Cannon's number, while no one has been allowed to wear Joe Burrow's No. 9, even if it hasn't been officially retired.

Regardless of which side of the argument you agree with, if you went on the internet on Thursday, you couldn't ignore just how many memes were made regarding the situation.

The best memes from the Jayden Daniels saga

As Jayden Daniels feels that the Number 5 belongs to him, at least at LSU, it led to everyone on Twitter/X making jokes about eliminating the number in general. One user joked that Adam Levine and Maroon 5 could be in trouble given that it's Daniels number, and the color he's wearing leading the Commanders.

Others joked that the NBA would be moving to 4-on-4 basketball, reserving the number 5 for Jayden Daniels.

Countless fans made jokes about high-fives, and how it could land them in the crosshairs of Jayden Daniels' camp.

Cinco de Mayo could find itself at risk given the fact that the holiday takes up a pair of fives.

Subway's $5 Footlong deal was another popular target for memes regarding the Daniels saga.

Some took it so far as to joke that the NFL would consider a league-wide bye week in Week 5, as the October 5th games would be a problem.

StubHub joked that out of respect for Jayden Daniels, they would no longer sell tickets in quantities of 5.

The video of Jayden Daniels' former Arizona State teammates trashing his locker after he left for LSU recirculated as many joked that's how LSU would handle removing his name from campus.

The entire internet, turning against Jayden Daniels led to the massive hit he took against LSU going viral all over again.

The popular Heisman House commercials may be awkward next year with Jayden Daniels newfound dislike for his former school.

Everyone attacking Jayden Daniels led to many remembering just how bad the LSU defense was during his Heisman season.

The saga served as a nearly perfect escape for college football fans who have been counting down the days until the season returns. In the end, hopefully Jayden Daniels can find peace with his former school, but the story was perfect for anyone who wanted to make a joke about the chaos on social media.
