Remind me why they would take it away? What did he do exactly?

 

[Madmarsha]

Awesome!


Except now I low-key want him to tell the NCAA where they can stick it.

"Bush, who won the trophy in 2005, had his award vacated after USC was hit with NCAA sanctions when it was found that Bush and his family received money and gifts during his time with the Trojans from fledgling marketing agents who were hoping to represent the rising football star".


Meanwhile, Pete Carroll jumped ship to the NFL and never faced any kind of backlash or sanctions or nuttin'.

Well, now that college players are getting paid via NIL, I guess the NCAA figured, okay, you can have it back....

Not that college players weren't getting paid before. Now, it's just legal.

Reason #1 why I think Carroll is a DB

And, you know, sure, before, players were supposedly getting something back (a "free" "education"). Meanwhile, everyone else EXCEPT the athletes were allowed to make money by exploiting the athlete. NIL isn't perfect but at least it's finally acknowledging how messed up it became.

Reggie Bush IS the Heisman Trophy. Can’t think of a player more deserving. Ridiculous it took this long.

He was crucified for doing what literally every single good college football player was doing: Getting paid and benefits.

 

[Nolan]

Yes, finally. It's absurd that it was ever taken from him.

The President is back!!!

Remember his first ever return for a touchdown when we were playing Tampa?

RE-GGIE! RE-GGIE! RE-GGIE!!

Man, that was ELECTRIC. The Dome was rockin!
