and why was Mack Brown so quick to lobby up for Vince to be awarded the trophy?

What a tough spot to be in for this guy. I'm sure he's a nice enough person and all, but it must have been a little easier to focus on just football than all the other players on the ship that had to deal with money issues for themselves and their families. No doubt in my mind he was the best player that year, and if I was V.Young I wouldn't even think about accepting it knowing I didn't win it fair and square. Even though he will if offered as he stated.

I guess he would want to give it away, rather than having it taken away.

I think just about any other coach would try the same thing.

Vince, and his Mom, already stated that he didn't want it, but then Mack Brown told him texas did want it, so now he does? Doesn't seem like he has Young's best interests in mind.

I think it's the right move to leave it vacated.

No doubt, whether it was V Young second runner up or not, same for USC's NC Title if they decide to yank that too. That trophy is a lot bigger than the Heisman. There were a lot more people that contributed to that than just Bush, but when your wrong, your wrong, and I don't think you get to pick and choose your own punishment

Ya, I think he just didn't want to suffer the humiliation of having it stripped....and this way he could act like it "wasn't an admission of guilt."

well he is still in a lawsuit brought by the agent who paid him and his family all that money. The smart players just pay the agents back when they get their first 50 mil check
