Take this for what it's worth, no link yet, but seen it on another board:

Sure would be interesting if true.........
 
That board is crap. So I'll take this rumor as crap.
 
From the infamous PFT:

IS REGGIE INELIGIBLE FOR ROSE BOWL?



In response to a recent report in The Los Angeles Daily News that USC tailback Reggie Bush has already decided to turn pro -- and that he is being "advised" by Reebok representative Mike Ornstein -- some NFL insiders are questioning whether Bush technically has blown his eligibility for the Rose Bowl.



The problem isn't whether Bush already has decided to enter the NFL draft, but whether Ornstein already is acting as his "agent" for any reason relating to Bush's eventual professional career. Indeed, it was the decision to sign with an agent after the initial Maurice Clarett court ruling that eventually kept receiver Mike Williams from returning to USC. If, then, Bush already has done the same thing, Bush arguably should not be permitted to play against Texas in the Rose Bowl.



Of course, neither Bush nor Ornstein is stoopid enough to reduce the terms of their relationship (whatever it might be) to writing. But based on the info we could glean from the NCAA's official web site (which is poorly organized and would desperately benefit from a complete overhaul), it looks like the NCAA looks to the total facts and circumstances in such situations, not just the question of whether someone has put pen to paper.



In this case, something stinks (in our opinion) about Ornstein's role in all of this. Sure, he's not an NFLPA-certified agent. But he represents multiple NFL guys in broadcasting and marketing contexts, and he is a paid rep for the company that makes all of the NFL's clothing.



The real question is whether the NCAA will do some poking around in response to this report -- and, if so, whether any conclusions will be reached before January 4.



And we suppose that, if the NCAA ultimately decides after the Rose Bowl that Bush blew his eligibility before it, there's a possibility that the Trojans, if they prevail in Pasadena, could be stripped of the win.

We're going to kill those cowards whether they have Bush or not.

LenDale knew the nation's #1 HS recruit, Reggie Bush, was going to USC when he signed. USC also had another top 10 RB sign with em in 03 along with White & Bush, in Chauncey Washington. He's had academic troubles but will get his chance next year along with the probable signing of recruits Stafon Johnson (#2 RB, Bush's role) & Michael Goodson (#8 RB, LenDale's role).
