Southern California is cleaning house in its tarnished athletic department, throwing out much of what got the school in severe NCAA trouble.
Athletic director Mike Garrett and Reggie Bush's Heisman Trophy are the first two items to go.
In a letter to school supporters Tuesday, incoming USC president Max Nikias said Garrett will be replaced Aug. 3 by Pat Haden, the former Trojans quarterback who became a successful businessman and a member of USC's board of trustees. The school also will return its copy of Bush's trophy to the Heisman Trust, among several measures to disassociate itself from the tainted tailback. ESPN
I think this is BS, but I can see it from a schools side, because school is about academics and not about football. But c'mon, Reggie Bush, Pete Carroll and the rest of that USC squad did a whole lot for the school as a whole. I think thy should let Reggie keep his trophy and let his record and the school records stay also. Fuck the NCAA..
