I guess it is time for Bama to let Harvey back in the fold.

I guess he never saw Mike Vick breaking ankles and Occasionally theowing the ball a mile for the touch also carried a mediocre Virginia tech To the National championship game .

Jadeveon Clowney. That guy was a beast at the college level.

I agree. I think Reggie Bush is the best college football player I’ve ever seen.

Reggie Bush is a hero. He helped the Saints win a Super Bowl and single-handedly took down USC’s football program.

Also knocked the bottom out of Kim Kardashian in her prime (before all the madness) and Eric Decker's wife. Reggie has lived an enviable life.

Hate to say this but he did not live up to what he was in college as a Saint.

Not many RB's do. Guy seemed a little brittle but he managed to have a few good years and played for a decade. The moral of the story is don't use your top 5 slot to pick a RB.

What he was in college was almost impossible to match in the pros. He was one of the most electrifying football players I've ever watched. But he did set some records with the Saints and in his first few years in the league, electrified our fan base following Katrina when he came here and played a role in bringing home a Super Bowl. He just did too much dancing around in the NFL. He was a fantastic WR for the Saints, but didn't become a consistent RB until later when he was with Miami .

Bush for the most part never learned that in the NFL everyone is fast. He could juke and jive every defender. That worked in college but at the NFL level you need to make one move then turn the jets on and get everything you can. He was a good NFL player.

I remember when Drew Knees hung him out to dry on a screen pass in the playoffs I thought he was not going to get up. That was a brutal hit.

He was definitely electric but he was also running against pac -12 defenses. That’s why he was a solid NFL player but not “great” like everyone thought he would be.

I remember watching their massacre of Arkansas back in 2005. One of the worst beatings I have ever seen.

Vince Young was the best player that year

maybe the best athlete, not the best player... t.u.'s offense consisted of VY dropping back, if he did not see his one read open right away, he turned into a RB. VY only had 45 less carries in 05 than Bush with far less yards.

That isn't true. Vince Young did tons of read option and RPO stuff. He had 25 completions in the national championship game. He wasn't just a runner. In fact, I felt like he threw for well over three hundred yards multiple times

@SomeLSUguy Far less yards but one NC ring. And he was the best player on the field that night.

If I'm Reggie and USC I still have a replica Heisman made and on display. Although he took money he still earned it and was the best by far that year.

lost to Aaron Rodgers and never beat anyone but Notre Dame. USC was then what Clemson is now.

Clemson's like 70-5 with 2 NC's the past 5 years. So I think your comparison is a compliment?

I’m glad USC removed Reginald Bush’s infractions bs too. If every blue blood ncaa program put their players on infractions that did what Reginald did, there wouldn’t be any players left to come to homecoming games.

The real question is will he be invited to the Heisman House?
