San Jose, Costa RicaApril 25, 2006 ?CWagerWeb.com (http://www.wagerweb.com), one of the largest sports betting sites on the Internet, posted odds today on the possibility that Reggie Bush will be forced to give up the Heisman Trophy that he was awarded in December 2005 for 'Outstanding College Football Player.' It is rumored that the Pac-10 is investigating the living arrangements of Bush's family last season to determine whether the NCAA rules were violated. Published reports have alleged that Bush's family abruptly moved out of a home in Spring Valley, Calif., last week because it was rumored that the was actually purchased by a man who may have tried to steer Bush toward an agent and who allegedly has ties to a sports marketing company. 'This could be a very dicey situation for a Heisman winner,' says Dave Johnson, WagerWeb.com CEO. 'It is also very interesting as Bush is expected to be the top pick in Saturday's NFL draft. If Bush is stripped of the trophy, Vince Young will get it by default.' The odds ask bettors to predict whether Bush will keep or lose his Heisman trophy. Payouts are as follows: Yes, he will be stripped of the Heisman +1200 (Bet $100 to win $1200) or No, he will keep the Heisman -1500 (Bet $1500 to win $100). * Wagers will have action until the NCAA has released a statement confirming Reggie Bush's eligibility after this current scandal. |
