Announced he will relinquish his Heisman Trophy amid speculation the Heisman Trust was preparing to strip him of the trophy. An investigation by the NCAA revealed that he and his family had accepted improper gifts by two sports marketers in 2004 and 2005. USC returned its copy of Bushs Heisman in July, and struck Bush from its official school records. The NCAA placed USC on 4-years probation, banned it from bowl games for 2 years, stripped it of 30 football scholarships, and nullified the 14 games it won with Bush. In June 2011, the BCS stripped USC of the 2004 national championship. The Heisman Trust decided to leave the award vacated for 2005 instead of awarding the trophy to Vince Young , who finished 2nd in the voting. Bush won the Heisman with the second-highest points percentage (91.77%) in history. [September 14, 2010].
