In 2005, Reggie Bush won the Heisman Trophy while playing for USC. However, in 2010, he forfeited the trophy after USC faced sanctions for violations that included Bush receiving improper benefits. Now, almost 20 years later, Bush will be receiving his trophy back as part of an anniversary celebration. The Heisman Trophy Trust president Michael Comerford stated that this was one of the reasons why Bush will be getting his trophy back, citing the recent changes in allowing college players to earn money from their name, image, and likeness.
Bush expressed his excitement about being reunited with his fellow Heisman winners and being a part of the prestigious legacy of the Heisman Trophy. He also mentioned that he is honored to rejoin the Heisman family and looks forward to collaborating with the trust to further advance its values and mission. Other Heisman winners have shown their support for Bush’s return, with Johnny Manziel stating that he would boycott the ceremony until Bush was reinstated.
The news of Bush receiving his trophy back means that both he and Manziel could potentially be present at the 2025 festivities. This move symbolizes a significant moment in the history of college athletics, showcasing how rules and regulations have evolved over time to better support and empower student-athletes.
