He didn't do drugs, rape anyone, take steroids, take HGH or anything. He got a suit for the heisman ceremony and free rent for his family which I'm pretty sure lived in a rugged neighborhood. WHO GIVES A ****!


I like Reggie and Hate USC but I think this is all bullshit. Nothing he is being caught for had anything to do with his play on the field and WAS the beauty of the heisman, it was a trophy strictly for ON FIELD performance. I can't believe this turned into what it was. I wish he would have been more cocky about it and gave back the trophy while holding the Lombardi trophy saying "I'll keep this one instead"

 

Yeah, but there are rules on and off the field that apply to the Heisman trophy. And as much as I would've loved for Vince Young to win it that year because I thoroughly thought he should have, I hope he isn't given the trophy. There should be an asterick on that year.

 

I really don't get the Vince Young argument either. Because of one game, which yes he did play very well, he gets the trophy? Bush had an entire season of dominance not a single game. Yes Vince was good but not nearly as good as Bush.

Let's not forget he won by the largest margin in the Trust's history.

 

Bush was unstoppable.

Despite what team you supported or a fan of, it would be difficult to not respect or admire what Reggie was capable of on the field.

 

I understand the whole "ineligible player" thing and all, but he earned it on the field. In no way did getting free rent for his family and a few connections contribute to his talent or the insane numbers he put up.

And the talk of giving it to second place is beyond ridiculous. If you saw the voting numbers there was no second place. VY didn't even receive remotely close to the same amount as Reggie so obviously the voters didn't think he deserved it.

I still love Reggie Bush.

 

I also wonder are we now going to continue to "airbrush" sports history and take away OJ's heisman?!?!?!?!?!

 

Kirk Kirbdbag said that they should give it to Young. He'll has officially frozen over!

 

Why shouldn't they. Bush played illegally the whole year, they are erasing his season. Vince Young was 2nd, if they are going to have a point system and runner up than it does go to VY.

Otherwise they should vote and conceal the points and not give 2nd, 3rd, etc etc and just give the winner the Heisman and be done with it.

 

OJ killed some folks, that has nothing to do with what he did on the field at USC, weak argument

 

I totally agree, but if you do not inforce the rules than everyone can do whatever the hell they want.
