Re: Reggie Bush forfeits Heisman



I just can't see how Bush would get to keep the award given the section I circled. Especially the last sentence.

Provided that's a real Heisman ballot, and it certainly looks real.

Re: Reggie Bush forfeits Heisman

Not to drag it back up, but I like how the fact USC went with their bigger, more powerful, back on 4th and 1 is supposed to be a negative in regards to Reggie Bush. I'm far from a Trojan fan, but that's going a long way for some hate. Haters gon' hate.

Reggie was the best, and most exciting, player that year. Again, not a 'SC fan, but even I, a Bruin guy, have fond memories of the 'SC/Fresno State game.

Agreed. Seems pretty cut and dry to me.

As for the topic, I think USC and the NCAA both severely overreacted to this situation. Yes, taking money is wrong. Yes, it should have been obvious to USC he was getting benefits when he starts driving around in his new Lexus and paying for everybody's food after wins. But its not like that affected his play. He didnt cheat, take PED's, or anything. He won the heisman fair and square. I dont think USC needs to try and erase arguable their best player ever from their existence.
What Lexus? My understanding was he was driving a Chevy when he was at USC.

I thought that it was his chick that was driving in a Range Rover or a Lexus or something.

I think you may be confusing Joe McKnight with Reggie.

Not that I condone what Bush did or anything, but people are kidding themselves if they don't think this goes on all over the country.
