Does Reggie Bush deserve his Heisman to be reinstated?

There's a thread about this already, but yes, he's the best CFB player I've seen in my lifetime. He deserves his Heisman trophy

Well Reggie your family also received benefits that were not available by legal means for all college athletes.

Yes. Everyone saw how dominant he was. Nothing changes that.
Maybe if it were PEDs, then maybe we could talk.

I mean that was over 10 years ago. So no. Knowingly broke the rules.

Sure he does.
OJ Simpson never had his taken away.
or did his former manager take it?
either way sure he does.

No. Anyone who got involved with the Kardashians doesn't deserve it.

Reggie and USC wish the NCAA was a court of law...they would've won easily.
NCAA is not a government entity and there is nothing legal about what they've been doing to athletes the last 50 years...notice how I didn't say "student-athletes" that was their folderol used to gip athletes like Avery Brundage used "amaturism" to swindle Olympic athletes and forbade endorsements.
NCAA has been a political Star Chamber run by jealous sister schools.
And the Heisman is just an award for on field excellence. He'll I don't care if you murder someone, you should still be able to keep your Heisman. (wait, maybe that already happened.)

It deserves to be reinstated, and then given to Vince Young instead.

If he's the best CFB Player you've seen in your lifetime then you're a young pup. I could rattle off 10 players without even trying that is better than Reggie Bush...I'm not saying he wasn't great but there were many that were better.

I feel like he took the full force of the CFB world being angry at USC for being so good.
Which is weird because they weren’t even 1/10th as good as Alabama under Saban. And nobody is hating on these top Alabama players on the same level as they were those USC teams.
ETA: I say give it back and apologize to him. Hell, Trent Richardson and his entire family probably got better illegal treatment than Bush did.

No! USC was cheating and other schools did not cheat and could have match his offer or even gotten a better deal. That was not fair and his parents got paid! That is all is needed to keep that punishment even though he didn't get a penny from it but no one should not know that his parents got paid and he didn't know about it. That is why he is still under his parents care.

It’s cute that people still think it’s isolated to only those who get caught
My favorite school cheats
Your favorite school cheats
If they don’t, they aren’t in the top 25 on a consistent basis

I mean if he gets his Heisman back then any program who had to forfeit or vacate wins in the past should get all those back too.

I hate USC with the fire of a 1000 suns but Reggie Bush deserved that Heisman.
