Reggie keeping in shape
bro golfs everyday and is pretty good at tat, glad to see him staying healthy and happy
Colleges made MILLIONS off these star players yet wanted them to barely survive while at the university. What hypocrisy!😡
Has nothing to do with it, him and his family broke the rules
@@billywalker8375evidence?
@@billywalker8375along with many others on the list
@@billywalker8375 it has everything to do with it.
Slavery
The Heisman house commercials about to go crazy.
All college football fans know those years Reggie was the truth on that field!
Reggie looks like he’s ready to suit up again. Bro is swole
Should have never been taken to begin with
As he should!!! Never should’ve been removed from him!!!
You mean the trophy Vince Young clearly won then proved he was the better player than all SC in the Rose Bowl. That trophy?
It wasn’t
@@newgoliard6059no Vince didn’t
I would have told them to keep that trophy. Yall went through so much to take it from me. But if he wanted it back then I'm glad he got it.
Same, to this day USC is not the same
I wanna see Reggie in a Fanville commercial now.
What the NCAA did to USC was EVIL! They punished innocent athletes for something USC had no knowledge of. USC's 2011 team finished #5 at the end of the season, but was banned from the post season. Countless players never played for USC because of those scholarship reductions besides the dozens upon dozens of players who were denied a post season who did not even know Reggie Bush. Lane Kiffin truly had it hard in the Reggie Bush sanction years. NCAA even took away USC BCS National title even though it alleged Reggie Bush only played two games that season with whatever illegal benefits they said it got. The two years year Caleb Williams played for USC he at least made $5 million doing it while when Reggie Bush played accepting a $5 hamburger from an alumni booster would have been illegal.
Says the USC alum
Lol evil
it was evil? ok drama queen. it's not that deep. NCAA is greedy. the end. during the blue chip era faux amateur college athletics were a "problem". its greed. NIL and earning opportunities for athletes outside of mbb and football changed Americans perception. consider context.
@@lightingbolt8148 it was evil when the head of USC's sanction committee was the AD at Miami Paul Dee (with an extremely dirty program discovered later) made sure to come down hard on a West Coast rival.
Wow 😮
99 Reggie bush is gonna be unstoppable in ncaa 25 ultimate team
Bahahaha game is trash
@@victorhardin2186 has not even came out yet bum
I was a huge fan of this guy! He deserves his respect!
So you think you should respect someone who broke the rules and cheated?
Damn, who taught you your values????
@@AwesomeBabyBoomerand who taught you yours accusing an athlete who you probably didnt know personally. He proved that was not the case or did you even look at the video.
@LA009Lab yeah, yeah.
Were you around when it actually happened? I was. I saw the news, I read the news and regardless what is said soooo many years later, he did what he was accused of. I was for stripping him of his award when it happened.
@@AwesomeBabyBoomer your an idiot. I know Reggie Bush way more personally than you ever will. He did not Cheat and did what he was accused of.
@@AwesomeBabyBoomerbecause the news never lies to you especially about black people. Do real research or shut up
The NCAA crooked af
So is the government.. so what
Pimps 4real
Good on him, since there’s no proof he should sue the NCAA for $100M.
What monster penalizes kids for something they were not even a part of? This organization consistently showing that they are thugs and bullies! The NCAA needs to be managed very differently.
I wish everyone that supports the NCAA in their decision to take his trophy and stain his name, would live by this in their lives. Since you agree, with consequences for things you didn’t do, then that means anyone can say anything about you with no proof and everyone should just believe it and there should be consequences for you as well.
See no one agrees with that, so why do we agree with it when it comes to Bush?
NCAA found the evidence against him . He’s mad he got caught
And he’ll win the lawsuit cuz they have that trophy back
Obviously was proof
you wrote all that and said absolutely nothing
NCAA pre Ed O'Bannon lawsuit and now NIL is different. he cant sue the NCAA. The scandal/investigation standards are not whatever imaginary standards you think they are
@@jusletursoulglobaby What are you basing your dismissal on?
1. He can sue them, he just did.
2. He is not suing them for NIL proceeds, even though the lawsuit from past athletes had such a good chance of winning that the NCAA and schools settled it for nearly $2 Billion because of how ironclad the SCOTUS judgment that changed everything was. The judge in that particular suit wrote in preliminary that the chance of victory was significant because of flagrant violations of the Sherman Act.
3. Therefore, while NIL has changed things, the Supreme Court did not create a new law that suddenly made NIL legal, its ruling was essentially saying "what you have been doing is illegal, and unAmerican" (Justice Kavanaugh's words, not mine). It didn't change the law, it confirmed that the NCAA had been breaking the law.
Anyone can sue them within the statute of limitations, now. It's open.
The NCAA needs to reinstate USC's 14 wins, although...everybody knows they are the real champions
nah. rules are rules.
One of the greatest ever in college was ⚡️ on the field.
The NCAA SCREWED UP BIG TIME. NOW REINSTATE THOSE USC WINS
Despite being a Longhorns fan in 2005. I still felt like Reggie Bush was deserving of the Heisman. He was by far the best player in college during that time.
Don’t smoke crack Gabriel.
@@AJXOXO-vz1pn yup, I sure don't want to turn out like you. Thanks for the being the example of what not to do in life 👍.
@@gabrieljude2478 9 out of 10 Longhorn fans think Vince Young deserved to win the Heisman in 2005. Yeah. Gabriel’s that guy.
the head of NCAA infractions committee who dropped the hammer on USC was Paul Dee, the former athletic director of the university of Miami, which it was later found out had a school booster who was paying for players homes, cars, strippers and abortions... they barely got a slap on the risk compared to what USC got
100%, and I hope Dee if rotting in hell.
The Kardashian curse😂
They belong to the streets feel sorry for Brady 🤮
@@mr.millionaire4570 you know kim is trying hard to reel him in
@@rithysokha9564she already had him lol she don’t want him anymore
She wasn’t with him then
Didn’t she just break up with OBJ lol
He was the greatest college football player of all time.
100% agree
Hershel Walker is..
Hershel Walker is.
No he’s not. Sit down.
I disagree! You put a modern day Barry Sanders on a decent team. Its not even close. Reggie played for USC. Barry Oklahoma St. Hard to say with the game constantly evolving every year though
Legend
God bless you and your family bro congratulations u earned it
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen an interview of Reggie. What a well rounded man.
I remember some high school footballers trying to mimic the end zone flip bt they broke they're necks 😂
His white QB Matt Leinart was definitely getting money as well, but no one ever brings that up…
True, but Bush still denies that he received improper benefits. He's not telling the truth.
Carson Palmer?
@@Tarntydon22I don’t know about Palmer, he was before. USC from 03-05 had plenty of allegations.
U kno why
Here we go
Thank johnny manziel buddy
I hope he wins!
Looking like a real life Billy Baker
Dude is ripped.... Fight On.
The word ALLEGEDLY with no proof has ruined a lot of athletes' careers and legacy, especially baseball players accused of using PEDs with no proof. When they've done all the investigations even using the FBI and finding nothing, they never issue a public or private apology, leaving the public to make their own opinions on someone's career!
I can hardly recognize him but he looks good and looks proud of getting his trophy back.
It’s about time
Thanks for this story, it was amazing your coverage and Mr. Bush response was heart felt.
IF there was no proof, how could they make you give up the trophy? I would've hired a lawyer asap! Them devils always find a way to break bros.
He was a scared kid with a huge future at stake.
Yo Nissan. Here is an opportunity for an awesome Heisman House commercial.
Reggie Bush called College Football Coaches "pimps". It sounds like he was hurt by Caroll. Being betrayed by someone you put your trust in is sad.
Truth crushed to earth will rise again! Spirit of Troy always fights on!!!
Reggie is a class act 💙🫡🏃♀️
Counter sued NCAA 10yrs wow loss a lot of money millions wow sued them period
They should clear Maurice Clarett, & THE Ohio State Buckeyes and all things with ,"tattoo- gate," as well!
Thank you for that. We still haven't forgot. Ruined Trussle's legacy.
@@anthonyarchibald9331
Jim Tressel was one of our best coaches ever and we lost him due to that garbage 🗑!
O- H
@@RA1DERASSASS1N I-O !
For real
Facts
Thank you Reggie for putting some spotlight and telling the truth about the system and how this new rule is really going to work in real life. It's just one more way the NCAA keeps their pulse on the players and everyone else around them.
The NCAA is the athletic KGB. It took courts to break up their racket.
College running back 🐐 LEGENDARY
Ncaa wants the first cut in the players NIL deals once you sign the contract you better live up to it
Best college football running back of all time
I’m glad Reggie got his earned Heisman back. Also glad the NCAA is no longer able to destroy schools and young adults just because they feel like it. I wonder if that power should have never been given to the NCAA in the first place.
I believe he learned a lot from those experiences and the financial aspect will come back to him.
Memories
Insane how he'll lose out on endorsemen deals but he'll never get it back. 😢
Solid dude, great to see he got his trophy back
8:53 bronny James ain’t no damn star lol
That caused the decline of USC football. Bout to bounce back in a big way soon. Go Trojans!!!
We all kno someone in his camp took money .im convinced…who wouldn’t take money at usc in the early 2000s …everyone took money
As a ucla bruin fan for life GOD this man use to torch us! Undeniable talent as much as I hate the university of spoiled children I was happy to see this man get his hardware back he deserved it.
That why they gave him the heisman. They can repair their image even though the damage is already done
About time
now he can get in the Nissan commercial.
reggie deserved it he never cheated He really like that !!!
The line is back there homie 😎🍦
From Michigan Reggie Bush glad you have your trophy 🏆 back now just forgive 🙏 and forget. And now you have your trophy back that means you have your good name back
Reggie should sue the Heisman Trust, the NCAA top executives and whoever else. They ruined his life and costed him millions of dollars. He couldn't even sign autographs anymore
The didn’t ruin his life, stop
I know. How will he ever survive on that 60 million???
@@pep590how would u survive on your no millions??????
He was DAMN Good! Happy that he got his Heisman back!
Ahh the good old days when USC was dominating college football GO Trojans!!!!!
Funny how there aren’t as many like as there were comments when he was stripped!
Look forward to the documentary.
Reggie ran for 500 yards in one game vs Fresno.
11 years 60 million, he got robbed
Damn this was 20 years ago?
He was fun to watch
All the good players in college football got paid to play. I don’t know why they decided to throw Reggie Bush under the bus.
Oj kept his lol
So much Money...😂😂😮
Good for him
Fight on✌🏾
i have a love hate relationship with how much the media has to mention katrina
They LOVE that Hurricane. It is an aphrodisiac for the media.
ask me should have been in it all along but I'm glad he got his trophy back and his good name collegiate
The coach.
The Best
Glad they made it right Reggie. Go brother!
Exploiting the kids? No and seeing his personal history he shouldn't be talking about exploiting any human being and I say this as a fan of his.
THIS WAS A GOOD WIN FOR REGGIE
Best. ever.
Tough to swallow that somehow the leadership at University of Maryland pay the football coach over $4M per year, making him the highest paid employee of the State of Maryland, yet players - nothing. Thankfully that is changing a bit but clearly the colleges and their employees are making boat loads of money while exploiting young talent.
Correction, they increased his compensation to over $6M per year.
Well deserve rip joel mcknight
Fight on Reggie!
His returned trophy does *not* right the NCAA's wrongs. He's beloved in New Orleans and across the Country. *People would buy products he endorses today.*
Pete Carrol did what!?
Pete told Russ to pass the ball on the 1 yard line in the Super Bowl, when Marshawn Lynch was RIGHT there!!??
And Malcom Butler intercepted it, clinching the win for the Patriots 28-24! 🎉
[P.S. Peter Carroll coached the Patriots 1997-1999, prior to Belichick]
Taking it away from him in the first place was stupid. Go Horns !!!!
OOOOWEEE Reg, they not gonna call you back to do commentating this season. Keeping it 2 real lol
The whole thing was absolute BS…
Paying college kids is the death knell of what college sports represents. Exit college spirit, rivalries, Cinderella’s, the purity and essence of kids trying to win for the team. Enter semi-pro football
That's right all the hits ypu take that takes money 💰 🤑 💸 😉 that's the society we live in
About time
It's fantastic he got it back. The NCAA its like the OWGR its fully broken and will never get fixed
🎯
Bout Time. Fight On SC
Bullshit he won the thing to begin with. We all saw Vince Young prove he was the best player in nation.
HE STILL BROKE THE RULES!
Sheep 🐑 🫵🏾

Is Bush saying that he never got illegal benefits? Lol the penalties was harsh, but Bush is no damn victim
so the ncaa can make money off the players and but the players cant.
no where else is that permissible.
