August 23rd 2023.
Reggie Bush was once the star quarterback of a highly successful University of Southern California football team that made history. With Bush leading the way, the Trojans secured two national championships and a 37-2 record throughout three seasons. He was a national hero, but this all changed thirteen years ago when the NCAA accused him of receiving pay-for-play benefits from a sports marketing agent in 2006. This led to him being stripped of his Heisman Trophy.
Now, Bush is ready to take on the NCAA to clear his name and restore his legacy. According to the Los Angeles Times, he will be announcing plans to sue the NCAA for defamation at the Coliseum--where he once dazzled crowds--on Wednesday, Aug. 23. Bush's attorneys Levi G. McCathern and Ty M. Sheaks have stated that the NCAA maliciously attacked his character through a completely false and highly offensive statement. This statement caused his reputation to be significantly and irreparably damaged. Bush's attorneys also stated that the NCAA knew he was never even accused of, involved in, or sanctioned for any 'pay-for-play arrangement'.
Since 2010, Bush has remained relatively quiet about the NCAA's treatment of him and his teammates. However, with new NIL deals and less strict collegiate rules taking effect in recent years, calls for Bush's case to be reexamined have come from the entire association and other sports professionals.
Bush is now ready to take action and fight for his name to be cleared. His attorneys are confident that the NCAA's false statement will be proven false in court. Hopefully, this lawsuit will provide the opportunity for Bush to restore his legacy and receive the recognition he deserves.
