USC legend and former NFL Pro Bowler Reggie Bush made his official return to The Heisman House. His portrait was hung, a tangible sign of his welcome back into the Heisman fraternity.
Bush starred in the college football campaign four months after the Heisman Trust returned his trophy.
The 2005 Heisman Trophy winner also revealed that he’ll star in a Heisman House commercial with the most recent winner, LSU alum and Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels.
“Getting the chance to catch up with some of these guys that I’ve been friends with for a long time — either played with or against — even some of the younger guys that I’m also fans of like Jayden Daniels,” says Bush. “Excited to be here to see all these guys here, this small, tight community of winners. It’s definitely an amazing opportunity.”
In 2005, Bush won the Heisman Trophy after his teammate, Matt Leinart, won in 2004.
Bush ran for 1,740 yards and 16 touchdowns on 200 carries, he also had 478 receiving yards and two more scores to finish with 2,218 all-purpose yards and 18 total touchdowns.
Bush, a San Diego native (Helix High), attended USC from 2003 to 2005 and had one of the best careers in college football history. He won two national titles, as well as the Heisman Trophy, during his time with the Trojans. After that he was the No. 2 overall pick in the 2006 NFL draft, selected by the New Orleans Saints.
Whether it’s being allowed to lead USC out of the Coliseum tunnel before a game this season, or appearing with Pete Carroll and other USC alumni in a special reunion, Bush needs to be allowed to create more special USC moments this season. Let’s hope people are creative and clever in making that happen at the school and its football program.
