@TBob53 After seeing this i couldn’t articulate well enough to not give myself a stroke from the anger. How are the things not inherent? Brian Kelly and his staff should be jailed for life. It also seems that media training struggled under the previous terrorist regime
Daniels’s position is not merely dumb and aggressive; it reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of IP. We have been here before. In Dastar Corp. v. Twentieth Century Fox, the Supreme Court rejected an effort to use the Lanham Act to manufacture a species of perpetual IP protection over material the law did not otherwise protect. The same principle applies here.
Jayden Daniels does not own the number 5, does not own the historical fact that he wore it at LSU, and does not acquire a perpetual veto over LSU’s use of its own history, statistics, photographs, or lawfully owned footage merely because he appears in them. A right of publicity protects against unauthorized commercial appropriation of a person’s identity; it is not an ownership interest in every fact, image, number, or historical event associated with that person. Daniels is entitled to police genuine misuse of his NIL. He is not entitled to convert his LSU career into private intellectual property and demand that LSU license its own history back from him.
