Possible Reggie Bush scandal at USC?
I'm sure this will amount to nothing, but you never know, it could be interesting. Who knew that Yahoo Sports practiced such investigative journalism?

I knew he was a dirty rat

First the whole wearing #5 thing and now this.
|
maybe his stock falls to us!

Damn that USC. Stealing MU's thunder like that.

NCAA statutes prohibit student-athletes or their families from receiving extra benefits from professional sports agents, marketing companies or their representatives. A breach of these statutes could result in an athlete being ruled ineligible, and games in which they played could be forfeited.
Unless they mean ineligible for the draft (is that even possible?) it doesn't effect him. I can't imagine USC having to forfeit if they immediately turned it in to the NCAA. Could mean nothing even if it's true. |

pahahah this shit happens all the time. An unnamed friend of mine that plays for Uof (unnamed) magically recieved a brand new truck our senior year in highschool and he didn't front the bill.
|
I think the proper punishment would be to cancel USC's season

So if it turns out that this is all true, that means the 2005 National Championship is vacated. That would have to be a first.

Bad news for USC.
Of no consequence to Reggie Bush. |
This kind of stuff, I believe is actually more common than not in big schools. Alumni having local businesses, players having $75,000 per year summer jobs. stuff like that.

I think they'd only wipe away the games where he was deemed "ineligible", which was his junior season. But I HIGHLY doubt it ever gets that far. |

So there is precedent. I'd laugh my ass off if USC had to forfeit their Nat'l championship. ROFL |
Jeff Graves was often seen driving a brand new escalade around campus when he played here

Its no wonder why these top athletes act they way they do these days. They get cash, free cars, free homes, dont have to do homework. They are pampered and treated like Kings since high school. and we wonder why they act like Prima donnas??

Wow, I can not beleive this. I am totally speechless. I never imagined in a million years a college kid would let his family or possibly himself take money from a booster or someone else. Who would've thought that these kids would be so naive to take money that they all seem to desperately need.

I like the forfeit games idea alot....
make USC and all schools think twice before pulling crap like this. If he hasn't graduated make him ineligible for next season. |

Yes it is ... 06 Trailblazer LT If you do any research the 05 and up have the BEST ratings. The 01 thru 04 got HORRIBLE reviews in consumer reports. I know price is a benchmark sometimes ... but if you can afford it I would look at an 05 or 06. Leftover 06's should be going on clearance in the next few months as the 07's start rolling out. http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...ht=Trailblazer :) . |

Seriously, this is all Bush has to claim: I was trying to buy my parents a nice home based on my future earnings. Or they family can say that they were considering buying the home but decided against it after not being able to secure a loan. There are about 5 or 6 plausible ways to get out of this. Plus, Yahoo Sports isn't the same as Sports Illustrated or ESPN knocking on your door, demanding to look at your finances. They may be on to something, but it'll be written off as Internet hype. Frankly, I'm surprised that we haven't heard more about USC football players swimming in money. Outside of this and Matt Leinart supposedly having a Hummer last year, there's hasn't been anything suggested. Which probably means that the people involved are really good at keeping quiet. The absolute worst thing that happens is USC losses some scholarships for a few years. I don't think it will ever come close to getting to the point where they make them forfeit games. Even if they did the only games that it would cost them would be this past years, so their National Titles aren't in jeopardy. |
The only scandel IMO is this kid generating all this revenue and not getting paid a proper perdentage.

Bush is live on ESPN's NFL Draft special right now. Trey Wingo wasn't letting him slide much.
|
Trey Wingo serious journalist..........ok I can't keep a straight face and say that. If they really think this is going to effect Bush at all in the draft they're stupid.

And all the "experts" said it didn't matter what happened with this house deal, Bush will be the top pick on Saturday. Everyone except Michael Smith, that is. |

Bigger than the MU scandal?
Bigger than ("it's no big deal") academic fraud? |

But a big school like USC whos had sucess the past few years it's a big deal. :) |
I also think Reggie Bush should be punished. The NFL should not allow him to be drafted higher than the 20 slot.
