And just coincidentally, 'Thomp's article mentions the OSU basketball investigation. Clever boy!  |

This is wrong on so many levels..some of which have already been discussed...but I guess I will add to the dog pile:
Do you think it might have had an impact on where he went to school? If so....I'd argue that it DID alter the outcome of games.
Do you expect Reggie to go to jail and have his life demolished for his mistakes?
Do you REALLY think Art fixed games? Do you know if he ever bet on his team to lose or not cover?
Do you think Art doing bad things makes it OK for Bush to be paid off? Is your defense really that Hiltler was a prick....so Bush/USC/Jarrett/Mayo shouldn't be punished for breaking the rules?
WTF?

Marketer's suit against Reggie Bush to be in open court
SAN DIEGO (AP) - A sports marketer's civil suit against former Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush will proceed in open court instead of going to a confidential arbitration, a judge ruled Friday.
Lawyers for the New Orleans Saints' running back petitioned to move the case into closed proceedings in San Francisco, in part to shield Bush from public attention.
Attorneys for marketer Lloyd Lake argued that the former University of Southern California star was trying to hide details from NCAA investigators about improper gifts he allegedly took from Lake's New Era Sports agency while playing for the Trojans.
Superior Court Judge Joan Lewis found there was no basis for granting the request and ordered pretrial depositions to continue as scheduled beginning at the end of the month.
Lewis rejected a request from Lake's lawyers to hear testimony from Michael Michaels, Lake's former partner in New Era, which was founded in November 2005 and is now defunct. Michaels, who owned a San Diego-area house where Bush's parents allegedly lived rent-free, reached an out-of-court settlement with the family in April 2007.
Lake is suing to recoup about $291,000 in cash and gifts Bush and his parents, Denise and Lamar Griffin, allegedly accepted during Bush's sophomore and junior seasons at USC, when fledgling New Era was seeking to make Bush its first major client.
Cont'd ...

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.

SignOnSanDiego.com > Sports -- NCAA could be closing in on Bush
Mike Williams released.
Steve Smith sent home.
OSU still on the schedule.
Not a good week for USC football.

Matt Leinart would be the only QB to ever win the Heisman without "winning" a game?  |
