Report: Bush to be stripped of Heisman

NCAA Football Betting Lines

09/07/2010 - Sunnyvale, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Southern California star Reggie Bush will reportedly be stripped of the Heisman Trophy he won in 2005.

According to Yahoo! Sports, the Heisman Trophy Trust is close to completing its investigation in the wake of the NCAA's findings that Bush was ineligible during the 2005 season.

The report states that the decision could be announced by the end of September. It also says the Heisman Trust will not award a second trophy and will instead leave the honor for 2005 vacant.

In June, the NCAA said Bush and his family received impermissible benefits, including plane tickets, hotel rooms, limousine service, housing, appliances, furniture, several thousand dollars and a car. Bush was retroactively ruled ineligible and the Trojans were slapped with numerous penalties, including a two-year bowl ban, a reduction of scholarships and a forfeiture of wins.

A month later, USC said it would remove all jerseys and murals displayed in recognition of Bush, and would return its replica of his Heisman Trophy back to the Heisman Trophy Trust.

Bush became the seventh Trojan to capture the illustrious award in 2005, easily outdistancing Texas quarterback Vince Young and USC teammate Matt Leinart for the honor.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
