Reggie Bush 'Always Felt' He'd Eventually Get Heisman Trophy Back, Is 'Excited'
Reggie Bush said he "always felt" like he would receive his 2005 Heisman Trophy again after forfeiting the award in 2010.
"When I first got the news, I was excited, obviously, because this was a fight that we'd been fighting for a very long time," Bush said Friday on the Pat McAfee Show. "I'm happy that the Heisman Trust made the right decision, did the right thing, got the trophy back.
"I always felt like I was going to get the Heisman Trophy back. Always. Just didn't know how long it was going to take. And it didn't matter to me how long it took... I'm just happy that it happened now."
The Heisman Trust announced the reinstatement of Bush's trophy Wednesday.
