Report: Bush to be stripped of Heisman
Updated Sep 7, 2010 12:25 PM ET
Former Southern Cal running back Reggie Bush will be stripped of his 2005 Heisman Trophy, according to an online report.
Two sources close to the Heisman Trophy Trust told Yahoo Sports their investigation is coming to a close and will concur this month with the NCAA’s ruling that Bush was ineligible in 2005. Sources said the honor for that season will remain vacant. Texas quarterback Vince Young finished second in the voting, but Bush had a huge advantage (784 to 79) in first-place votes.
Bush reportedly met with Heisman representatives last month, though details of that meeting are unknown. In July, the school administration announced USC would return its copy of Bush’s Heisman to the trust. The status of USC’s 2004 Bowl Championship Series title remains to be determined. BCS officials are awaiting the NCAA’s ruling on the Trojans’ appeal of the NCAA sanctions.
