Reggie to be stripped of Heisman Award.

Tough break, Reggie. I figured this was coming, though.

yeah im with you..knew it was coming...sad but thats the way it goes...he got a ring so...im sure he aint too sad..

This has got to effect his psyche, though. Being banned from the grounds of the University he loves and was basically in his backyard. They take down his trophy there. Now he gets the award stripped from him. Plus, the media is going to hound him about this any chance they get. I hope he is thick-skinned enough to let this all bounce off of him, but I figure this has to bother him a good bit when past mistakes come back to haunt him.

So now who gets it, some second stringer?

Sounds like a Vikings fan chose to make this decision right now.

He just has to put it behind him ..we got a 2dat to worry about..he will be ok..

He can use this as motivation....

Nobody. The award is going to be completely vacated.

Excactly....and they cant take that ring without his finger....2 Dat!!!

but yet OJ gets to keep his and USC has no problem with his being in thier "hall of fame" what a joke

if i were reggie i would tell usc and heisman people to shove that trophy up their ass. he can still keep the one he has at his house. i would also wear my superbowl ring when i hand it back to them.

So a double murderer can keep his....but a guy who had his families rent paid for gets his stripped.

Makes perfect sense.

I can agree with the penalties for USC, and Reggie and for whoever else broke the rules.

Here is the problem...

The agent who gave the money, nothing happens to them.

NFL needs to step in and impose bans on these crooks who help and corrupted the system.

Oh I see taking money or whatever he did changed how he played the game??

If they were going to do this it should have been 4 years ago - NOT NOW

The Heisman curse has been lifted..Run Reggie run!!!!!

Could affect where one plays his college ball. One can then argue if he played for say Tiffin or Temple he wouldn't have got all those yards. There needs to be a penalty for breaking the rules. I don't have a problem with that but the knuckle head who gave him the money still gets to do his thing without a slap on the wrist. I don't think that is fair at all.

You mess with Bush!!!

Thats to bad but we all know he was the best college football player.

You tell 'em Euph.;)

Yeah I have to agree in make no sense. That agent should losses all his NFL Clients. Not be allowed to work with NFL players.

Poor Reggie. This is just horrible.

What he said.

Well he knows he won it. Sucks that they're making him give it back. Everyone around the world saw him win it though. You can't change that. That's what I don't get about stripping awards. I thought the same about Brian Cushing's award. Even if you hate the guy, it doesn't change the fact that he won the award.

But you can't let a guy who cheats get away with it.

Yeah you're right, but it depends how they define "cheat". In Reggie's case, money has nothing to do with playing the game, besides maybe a little comfort.

You got a point here.... he runs the first 3000 yards in a single season in NFL.... showing the Texans they made a mistake picking supermario.

This is the first thing I thought of when you said that...gotta watch all the way through...


:bng:

You would have to shut down college football to put a stop to what Reggie did. The NCAA is a joke.

The thing that pisses me off is its right before we play on thursday....I hope Reggie blocks this crap out and runs wild on Minnhaha...Use it for motivation Reggie..show em brah!!

But I heard after the report initially came out, that it was reported inaccurately by Yahoo Sports. Someone on ESPN said they spoke with the committee that decides this (an independent panel of professionals), and that the report was untrue...that No decision had been made. Almost made me think it was propaganda intentionally leaked by yahoo sports (AKA viking fan)...

Did anyone else see this? It was on ESPN at around 11-ish, CST....

I'm all for the people who broke the rules to actually get punished in some way. For the most part that doesn't happen. The players left at the schools always get punished by not being able to play for titles and in bowl games. Reggie knowingly broke the rules. If they remove his name from the Heisman, oh well.

Well I can bet everything I own Bush is not the first Heisman winner who did that but the first to get caugh. If he had signed with those guys we would never have heard about this.

Story not true:

Heisman Director: Yahoo Report ?Completely False?

Rumor has it Brett and Chilly are gay.
