Apr 24, 2024, 01:58 PM

Reggie Bush, the former University of Southern California running back, is set to have his 2005 Heisman Trophy formally reinstated today. The Heisman Trust, influenced by significant changes in college athletics, including the acceptance of student-athlete compensation, decided to return the trophy to Bush. He had forfeited the award in 2010 following NCAA sanctions against USC due to improper benefits he received during his playing career. Michael Comerford, president of the Heisman Trust, emphasized that the decision reflects the enormous changes in college athletics over the past years. Bush expressed his excitement about reuniting with his fellow Heisman winners and contributing to the Heisman Trust's mission.
