Shoulda been used like Brian Westbrook. If Andy Reid drafted him he would've been a problem.

How the fukk did none of this translate to the NFL? :mindblown:

Yes, this is inspired by the Grantland article that came out a few days ago: The Ghost of Reggie Bush: Looking Back at a Tarnished Trojan Hero, 10 Years Later


Speaking of Grantland, I remember Bill Simmons specifically calling it that Bush could end up anywhere from breakout star to straight bust. He lit the world on fire during college, but there were things about his game that made it quite clear he could struggle to find a role in the NFL.

I think he did alright for himself.

2- NCAA Titles
-Heisman
-Arguably the most legendary college player of the past 25 years.
-On one of the greatest dynasties in College Football history
-Super Bowl Ring
-Solid NFL Career
-$50M+ earned .

Yeah breh was far from a bust and far from ineffective. Not many better players from the same class.

Only thing dude didn't do was meet some very high expectations, and some of that could very well be due to the system not being the right fit (which is a great system).
