Monte's kid could keep it in his billiard room or monte's kid's oc could keep it in the trunk of his car for recruiting purposes.

They are just returning the trophy, which is quite a bold move.

I am guessing he is no longer welcome on campus. Ouch!

The HT committee will still decide whether or not to vacate Bush winning the title.

I'd say Reggie could care less, he has already made his coin in the NFL.

I agree, but it will make the Homecoming BBQ very uncomfortable for the foreseeable future.

Not to mention, the shameful whispers that will happen in the alumni section at the games.

Shameful whispers? This is USC alumni you are referencing. Different mindset.

They mention the term "copy" when talking about Bush's trophy. How many copies are produced?

Steve Spurrier, however, relinquished his Heisman before he had a chance to display it. Upon receiving his trophy in 1966, the young Florida Gators quarterback and future Ol' Ball Coach immediately presented it to university president Dr. J. Wayne Reitz so that the award could be shared by Florida students and faculty. The magnanimous gesture was so moving that Florida's student government raised funds to purchase a replacement for Spurrier. From that time forward, the Downtown Athletic Club has issued two trophies, one to the individual winner and one to his school.
