Absolutely proof Reggie took money and benefits.
I know, people acting like the school didn’t know. Please. Honestly it doesn’t matter at this point, people know what they did on the field.

Yeah just doesn’t sound right to say there was no proof when they took it.

There wasn't any. That's why the NCAA had to say "should have known". There wasn't any question that the Bush family got to live in a house rent free. They never proved USC knew or was involved. Their "smoking gun" was supposed to be Todd McNair who filed a suit they had to settle.

They had proof that Reggie took money.

Actually, what they had was proof his family lived in a house rent free. They never proved that USC knew or was involved. That is what the issue is. Losing the Heisman, then getting it back was between Bush and the Heisman Trust. USC has no part in that other than they will receive a copy to display at the school.

NCAA by laws say it’s the school’s job to know. There are no grounds to return those wins or the national title.

Ncaa list any credibility at all with me when they changed the rules and applied them retroactively to attack UConn and then didn’t do a damn thing when unc deserved the death penalty for fake classes

So then you can explain how the school was supposed to know when nothing took place on campus. All of it was 2 hours away in San Diego. During questioning one of those involved said that they intentionally kept everything away from campus because they knew Reggie could get in trouble.

They actually did a really good job of keeping things hidden. The only reason they got caught was because when it became apparent that Reggie wasn't going to pay them back for the house and that he wasn't going to sign with the sports rep agency that they and his stepfather were trying to start, they leaked the info to yahoo sports.

Their new chicken cantina Taco with avocado salsa is good.

Have you tried it yet, @trojanfan12?

Which one? I like both, but I prefer the soft version over the crispy version. Not really a fan of Taco Bell's recent trend of wanting to melt cheese on the outside of things. Makes it greasy

I sure hope Caleb is a future top 5 QB @trojanfan12...

We essentially tanked the last two seasons to get him.
They have the #1 pick because of the trade with the Carolina Panthers. Not because the Bears tanked, especially last season when they came on strong in the 2nd half of the season.
