Reggie Bush’s disassociation with USC ended Wednesday and now the former college football running back has his sights set on getting his Heisman Trophy back.
Part of the NCAA’s sanctions against USC and Bush was him giving up his Heisman. But now that the disassociation is over, the former Trojans star talked about the possibility of getting the award back.
REGGIE BUSH REUNITED WITH USC AS DISASSOCIATION ENDS: 'I'M EXCITED TO COME HOME'
“To say that I don't want the Heisman back would be a lie... Also, at the same time, I'm more focused on the kids now because what happened to me is in the past,” Bush told FOX Sports’ Colin Cowherd on “The Herd.”
The disassociation started in June 2010 as part of sanctions that included a two-year postseason ban, a loss of 14 wins and 30 scholarships, according to ESPN. USC received the penalty after it was determined Bush received improper benefits while playing for the Trojans.

“When I was hired to represent the Trojan Family as the Director of Athletics, I committed to listening and learning before leading. Throughout this process, one of the consistent themes that emerged from my discussions was how much Reggie Bush means to our former players, USC alumni, and fans everywhere,” athletic director Mike Bohn said in a statement.
“I've enjoyed getting to know Reggie and so many of his teammates, and I'm pleased his disassociation has ended so that we can welcome him back to our family. I'm confident that Reggie will use his incredible platform and influential voice to support and empower all of our student-athletes.”
Bush said in a separate statement: “I've dreamed of this day for 10-plus years, and I'm excited to come home!”
