The former star running back had been prohibited from interacting in an official capacity with the school he played for from 2003-05 since NCAA sanctions handed down in 2010. Bush and USC were penalized for him and his family receiving impermissible benefits while he was still in school.

Reggie Bush should want answers after the newest NCAA rule pertaining to athletes.

This week, the NCAA announced that all college athletes can now profit on their name, image and likeness.

Former USC running back Reggie Bush famously had to forfeit his 2005 Heisman Trophy after an investigation by the NCAA revealed that him and his family was receiving improper benefits. USC was also hit with heavy sanctions.

On Thursday, many fans called for the NCAA to give Bush his Heisman back. And the USC legend took to Twitter to give his thoughts on the new rule.

It seems like Reggie bush is taking the new rule with a grain of salt. The NCAA will likely not be changing decisions they have made in the past, and it appears Bush has already moved on.

As for the current college athletes, this is great news.

“This is an important day for college athletes since they all are now able to take advantage of name, image and likeness opportunities,” Emmert said. “With the variety of state laws adopted across the country, we will continue to work with Congress to develop a solution that will provide clarity on a national level. The current environment — both legal and legislative — prevents us from providing a more permanent solution and the level of detail student-athletes deserve.”

We’ll see if anyone asks the NCAA if they plan on giving Reggie Bush his Heisman back.
