USC is stepping up and taking its lumps like a big boy.
As a result of the NCAA's findings in the Reggie Bush payola scandal, the university has to vacate the victories it won in the games for which R Bush was declared ineligible and remove Reggie's stats for those games from its record books.
Yesterday they fired athletic director Mike Garrett after 17 years of service, as he presided over the tainted years.
Then they announced that they would return the Heismann trophy that Bush won for his efforts during the payoff season. That's never been done before.
The latest reports have former coach Pete Carroll still safely at work for the Seattle NFL club and Reggie still wearing his NOLA Saints uniform, and each is still collecting 7 digit compensation for their respective efforts, and USC made about a zillion dollars during that season. Show me the money, Jerry. That part isn't changing.
