If you don’t like or agree with the NIL, blame the NCAA for it. They’ll make tens of millions off of a guy, but let someone find out a restaurant owner said you don’t have to pay for your steak and they’ll nail the entire program to the wall.
@@MazeDaGr8They were making something off it though.. they got a high quality education for free and admitted to a college that probably 90% or more of them wouldn’t have gotten into if it wasn’t for them being good at football. They had access to top quality Dr’s and overall medical care, tutors and got all kinds of free gear. Using this argument, high school players should get a cut of ticket sales.
@@darthsilversith667 this argument would have merit if the same principles applied to all college students on scholarship but it doesn't, it only applies to athletic scholarships. Every person on an academic scholarship can make as much money as they want, receive whatever benefits from whomever while in college but scholarship athletes are restricted. The fact that athletes got additional benefits doesn't mean anything because scholarships is money already spent with numerous restrictions, in which players were limited in how they could make money that they could spend on themselves and families, who might also need support. High school is not even remotely the same because there are few restrictions on high school kids making money while in high school and playing a sport, their ability to work is restricted by federal and state laws but there is no limit to the amount they can make, who they can work for, or when they can work based upon athletic association bylaws, plus if they are under 18 they are not adults, college students are. The rules that apply to athletes in high school apply for just about every single student in high school in terms of earning money.
Just give Reggie his damn Heisman back, the benefits he got weren’t performance enhancers, he still had to go out there and be the best player in college week in and week out and that’s exactly what he did.
I think Vince Young was the best player in college football that year but Bush was by no means undeserving and he should've never been stripped of the award.
@@kylenorman5250all of USC’s success in the 2000’s was because they were buying the best talent.. that’s not a fair playing field and why he was stripped of his award.
@@DevinEMILE I know they weren’t the only team doing it.. just about everyone in the SEC and B12 was doing it too. USC was just the biggest ones doing it. I think NIL is going to be the worst thing ever that happened to college football.. if people thought the last decade was horrible with how repetitive it was with the same few teams.. it’s going to get a lot worse now.
I HATED USC back in the day, but what the NCAA attempted to do to Reggie Bush, the best RB to ever play college football, was just pathetically laughable. Still the Heisman winner.
Best college rb of all time and this is coming from a penn st fan who got to witness saquon live. I was young watching that natty w usc and Texas, Vince was my fav qb for a long time
As Fresno State fan, I too, hate USC. But in no way shape or form, did Reggie Bush or USC deserve the punishment that they received. Give Reggie his Heisman back...
Reggie isn't the only one who suffered. The punishments, especially the recruiting limitations, set USC back for damn near 10 years. It could be argued that the ripples of this case are felt in the ongoing death of the Pac-12.
You're right, they totally screwed the Pac-12 and forced the SEC to beasically become the NFL minor league, making a lot of the conferences irrelelvent.
I still see Reggie as a clear Heisman Trophy recipient even if that title was “stripped” from him by the NCAA. His performance on the football field at USC is legendary and speaks for itself. Edit: Vince Young is a real one for not accepting the trophy after it was ‘stripped’ from Bush. Legend. Vince Young was one HECK of a college football player.
No doubt any other year during the 2000’s Young probably wins it but that was 100% Bush’s Heisman. People gotta stop underrating his value and his legacy he’s at worst a top 5 CFB RB of all time.

I hope that Reggie and other past college athletes come together and put a lot of heat on the NCAA. They need to have past cases and judgements reviewed, becuase if they screwed up in Reggie's case, I wouldn't doubt it if it happened in others.
The irony is how much money he made for USC, the NCAA, and EVERYONE else who was on the take. I was at the Hawaii game when Hawaii hosted USC in 2005. It was a spectacle! I say this as someone from Louisiana and a die-hard bayou Bengals fan. Give him his trophy!
It's crazy to me how many people STILL argue against college athletes getting paid. Its especially egregious when it's people who played high school or college football because 95% of the time its coming from a place of pure jealousy. I don't know if it's more hilarious od deeply sad to be honest.
Worse, people who believe that just ignore or don't care players aren't making money off of the university itself, they're making it off of their own image, but universities are still making money off of them. They compartmentalize that it's okay for every other person on scholarship be allowed to make money however they want but get mad that athletes can now do the same just because they get extra benefits the university itself offers, not extras that athletes negotiated or demanded.
the top stars should absolutly be paid above the scholorship but a majority are getting fair payment through the scholorship. It feels like whover has the biggest boosters will just dominate. Maybe have some sort of cap like the NFL.
Why is the production value of this video so atrocious? No cold open, no opening title, graphics straight outta a 1998 mac book running photoshop 1. Oh wait. It’s probably bc it was rushed out when news broke that Reggie bush is suing the NCAA.
Secret Base, I love you guys and your videos, the beef history series in particular. I watch and rewatch these almost daily, even just to throw them on in the background. The drop in quality in these recent videos is astounding, who is letting these be posted? The audio quality is poor, and the musical background which is supposed to complement the narration has been turned down because of the poor audio so it makes us feel like we are sitting in an echoey room being lectured, instead of a fun narration of sports beef. Still love you guys, but some of the latest videos have been unwatchable.
This is a UA-cam compression issue. It has nothing to do with their end. They could take it down and reupload it but that will cost them any growth and viewership. It’s a lose-lose that’s UA-cam’s fault
Bush made USC and the NCAA millions. U gotta get urs why u can especially in a sport as brutal as football. Bush is the best college player I’ve ever seen. Sad that 18 years later the rules are totally different and he could have made millions off his college stardom. Timing is everything…
Reggie Bush won the Heisman. I don't care what the NCAA says, I don't care where the physical trophy is, and I don't care what history they do or don't want to acknowledge. Reggie Bush won that award, I know it, they know it, everyone knows it; and there is nothing they can do about it.
He may have been stripped of the trophy and his stats, but we all know that Reggie Bush won the Heisman Trophy and did all the things he did on the field. You can erase it on paper, but the footage still exists.
I will never understand why people defend big corporations and don't side with the worker or union. No matter what you're being paid, the Corp you work for is making more and laying you less than you're worth. Any "journalist" who supported the NCAA should lose their credentials and respect.
@@jamaalsjourney compare the 3 most recent Beef Histories then compare any 3 random ones from before 2023 and tell me which ones are better. Does that help? I think if this video had more beef then maybe it would have been better.
Great content and recap of the events. But two items that seem out side Secret Base quality is the audio and the presenters tone. Seemed more like someone talking over a youtube short then a docu-video style the other presenters provide.
I appreciate the work y'all do and the stories y'all tell! I dont mind the audio quality so much, it doesn't ruin the content for me, but I hope that your recording equipment is okay! Lord knows I've had to make due in my classroom with bad equipment plentt of times due to time constraints. Definitely been there.
Yeah, came down here to see who else commented on the audio quality. It might not even be the equipment, either. It sounds like the audio is compressed, perhaps in post.
Imagine being a collegiate player who garners your school MILLIONS of dollars and you go to Walmart and see your likeness on a video game but you cant afford a loaf of bread
I always thought it was the east coast bias - Just look at what the NCAA did to Washington in the early 90s. Don James retired in protest. Now THAT deserves a good rewind
They said high profile stars get higher punishment...But in the same breathe won't revisit cases...? But doesn't this case of a high profile player needs revisiting..Not every case...but the high profile cases...! Being players can receive exactly what he received then... Hmmmmmm?
Look what you're saying is definitely true, HOWEVER, that does not excuse rule breaking. There are many laws that are terrible, but try bringing that up to a judge after you get charged for break them. Irrelevant.
@@user-hs7qf5vv2n terrible equivalency since Rosa parks was a proven setup by the then black leaders because the real woman who had that incident genuinely happen to her wasixed and had a child out of wedlock, which the church frowned upon
I want so desperately for the Heisman House Nissan commercials this year to focus on Reggie Bush reintroducing himself to his fellow Heisman winners, for me at least, that'll bring the whole thing home.
Also i love that Paul T. Dee had such strong feeling about Reggie Bush and USC when he was the AD of Miami duirng there wonderful scandal years for 2002 to 2008 when he retired.
This is absolutely perfect timing. Specifically after watching Johnny Football's episode of Untold. If he's allowed to keep his Heisman, then Bush most definitely should be given a Heisman back.
I just can't with this audio. I got less than a minute in and I was done. I get it. You are trying to ride the wave after Reggie's announcement of suing the NCAA. But that doesn't mean you have to push out a raw uncooked beef history on the topic. This is just unprofessional as hell. I am pretty sure all of the people who actually watched this video would have been fine if you took a little more time to put out something with higher quality that is closer to what your normal output is.
They claim to be all about the Holy Sanctity of academics but if academics were actually sacred, college sports wouldn't even exist. Hell, neither would high school sports. WTF does playing sportsball or running track etc have to do with academics? The entanglement of these things is rather curious when you step back and look it at objectively.
THe NCAA had it's own version of modern day slaver gladiators and they did everything they could to keep it that way while enriching themselves, countless deans, athletic directors and campuses on the backs of students who received a valuable, but nowhere NEAR as valuable as what they put in, education. 6:21 You couldn't have drawn a more perfect caricature of a modern day slave owner than Paul Dee's actual face. It's a face that practically screams greed, excess, corruption and righteous indignation despite being utterly in the wrong
I wonder if Bill Self is still considering a defamation lawsuit against the NCAA. His lawyer did send a letter to the NCAA to prepare because he was considering it stemming from their *accusations* of the Level 1 violations.
Not the NCAA fault but it's wild that Lou Anna Simon was on the NCAA Executive Committee (she was elected to the committee for a two year term to "build trust and confidence back in the system" after the fallout from the Jerry Sandusky scandal) and then was found to have been complicit in the USA Gymnastics sex abuse scandal
I didn't even know that the NCAA had anything to do with the Heisman. Always thought it was award by a consensus of Downtown Athletic Club voters. Regardless, Reggie Bush will always be remembered as the recipient of the Heisman Trophy in 2005. The NCAA can not erase our memories.
Yes he filed a lawsuit against the NCAA for defamation stemming from their response in 2021 to being asked if NIL now being ok if Reggie would get the heisman back. And they responded by saying that white NIL is allowed pay for play is not so he still broke rules. And so he filed a suit claiming that they defamed him by accusing him of pay to play.
This video is PHENOMENAL The NCAA is like the government, starts with good intentions, then money, power, and greed screws it up. People don’t want to let go of power and everyone else foots the bill. Solid work!!!!
Great video Stephen. I am definitely a huge critic of the hypocrisy of the NCAA, with it’s old rules of letting the coaches and ad’d making millions of dollars while the athletes can not even afford to go the school or food. I hope Reggie wins his suit against the NCAA.
Still waiting for the video on Didier Deschamps and Karim Benzema's decade-long feud. It would cover two World Cup finals, Deschamp's home vandalized, and a bizarre blackmail attempt using a sex tape.
Been waiting for this one! Reggie Bush will always be my favorite football player of all time even if his NFL career didn’t hold up to his college stats! I’ll never forget watching him tear up my beloved hometown Fresno State and making them look like pop Warner players lol 😂
The Heisman Trust can give Reggie his trophy back now. The Heisman Trust has no connection to NCAA. As of now, the Heisman Trust is a bunch of wankers, like the NCAA.
Coming back to this to celebrate Bush getting his Heisman back. We did it Joe

The audio quality comments will continue until moral has improved. That is all.
Not the NCAA fault but it's wild that Lou Anna Simon was on the NCAA Executive Committee (she was elected to the committee for a two year term to "build trust and confidence back in the system" after the fallout from the Jerry Sandusky scandal) and then was found to have been complicit in the USA Gymnastics sex abuse scandal
I didn't even know that the NCAA had anything to do with the Heisman.
Always thought it was award by a consensus of Downtown Athletic Club voters.
Regardless, Reggie Bush will always be remembered as the recipient of the Heisman Trophy in 2005.
The NCAA can not erase our memories.
Well today is the day he got it back 💯
I'm sorry, but what the heck is going on with the audio quality here?
So isnt Reggie suing the NCAA now for slander and other things?
Yes he filed a lawsuit against the NCAA for defamation stemming from their response in 2021 to being asked if NIL now being ok if Reggie would get the heisman back. And they responded by saying that white NIL is allowed pay for play is not so he still broke rules. And so he filed a suit claiming that they defamed him by accusing him of pay to play.
Holy audio quality Batman
There is a very clear reason why Bush was punished so hard on top of the USC resentment. Let's sit and think on it together.
I may be a rube from “fly-over-country” but you used ‘burnishing’ when you meant ‘burgeoning”. 1:49
This video is PHENOMENAL
The NCAA is like the government, starts with good intentions, then money, power, and greed screws it up. People don’t want to let go of power and everyone else foots the bill.
Solid work!!!!
This was a Barbecue with the NCAA on the grill and I loved it!
Why does this sound like it was recorded with a laptop mic
Was the audio recorded in a payphone?
Great video Stephen. I am definitely a huge critic of the hypocrisy of the NCAA, with it’s old rules of letting the coaches and ad’d making millions of dollars while the athletes can not even afford to go the school or food. I hope Reggie wins his suit against the NCAA.
HE FINALLY GOT IT BACK
audio quality? why is it recorded on a 2007 Motorola Razr?
Still waiting for the video on Didier Deschamps and Karim Benzema's decade-long feud. It would cover two World Cup finals, Deschamp's home vandalized, and a bizarre blackmail attempt using a sex tape.
I don’t know if this guys mic is messed up, but the voice over is terrible
Did you record this video on your phone in a closet?
Still says 2X National Champion and 2005 Heisman winner on his wikipedia page. That's taken infinitely more serious than any NCAA record book.
Been waiting for this one! Reggie Bush will always be my favorite football player of all time even if his NFL career didn’t hold up to his college stats! I’ll never forget watching him tear up my beloved hometown Fresno State and making them look like pop Warner players lol 😂
What is with the audio quality in this one? Jeez.
Great content SB nation , but whats up with the audio on this video? sounds like its being recorded inside of a tin can? really hard to listen to.
Wtf does OJ have to do with this? You don’t like OJ’s verdict, so let’s strip away any trophy he’s ever earned all the way back to peewee football?
O.j - Not GUILTY ,Thats why he still has a Trophy Smart Guy .
Well well, what a time to be alive...
The Heisman Trust can give Reggie his trophy back now.
The Heisman Trust has no connection to NCAA.
As of now, the Heisman Trust is a bunch of wankers, like the NCAA.
