NCAA To Give Decision Soon On Reggie Bush

A San Diego Paper Reports…

 The NCAA may be close to ruling that former USC running back Reggie Bush is retroactively ineligible, which could cause Bush to lose his 2005 Heisman Trophy and the Trojans to forfeit games in 2004 and 2005.

An attorney for Lloyd Lake said NCAA officials have indicated that “they don’t need anything else” to finish their investigation into Bush’s college eligibility except for one thing – the Aug. 29 deposition date for Michael Michaels, Lake’s investing partner in a start-up marketing agency.

Lake’s attorneys estimate Bush has spent more than $1 million in legal fees to defend himself in a case that seeks about $300,000. Bush has denied wrongdoing. “Plaintiff still has to prove his case,” Cornwell said.

I guess the 2004 Auburn Tigers really are the National Champions…
