METARIE, La., Sept. 14 (UPI) -- Former University of Southern California running back Reggie Bush said Tuesday he has forfeited his title as the 2005 Heisman Trophy winner.
Bush, who plays for the New Orleans Saints, said in a statement issued through the team he is bowing to pressure from a four-year NCAA investigation that saw USC hit with heavy penalties, in making his decision to relinquish college football's top individual award.
