Bush would become the first player in the 75-year history of the award to be
penalized in that fashion. The NCAA found major violations in the USC
football program in June, resulting in sanctions.
Two sources close to the Heisman Trophy Trust told Yahoo Sports their
investigation is coming to a close and will concur this month with the
NCAA’s ruling that Bush was ineligible in 2005.
Sources said the honor for that season will remain vacant. Texas quarterback
Vince Young finished second in the voting, but Bush had a huge advantage
(784 to 79) in first-place votes.
Bush reportedly met with Heisman representatives last month, though details
of that meeting are unknown. In July, the school administration announced
USC would return its copy of Bush’s Heisman to the trust.
The status of USC’s 2004 Bowl Championship Series title remains to be
determined. BCS officials are awaiting the NCAA’s ruling on the Trojans’
appeal of the NCAA sanctions.
