Reggie Bush, whose Heisman Trophy victory for Southern California in 2005 was vacated because of NCAA violations, is among 18 players in the latest College Football Hall of Fame class announced Monday.<\/p>\n

Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, who won the Heisman in 2007, was also elected to the Hall by the National Football Foundation, along with Dwight Freeney of Syracuse; Luke Kuechly of Boston College; LaMichael James of Oregon; and Michael Bishop of Kansas State.<\/p>\n

Bush played on two national championship teams with USC in 2003 and ’04, and led the Trojans to another title game in 2005, when her ran for 1,740 yards, averaged 8.7 yards per carry and scored 19 touchdowns.<\/p>\n

He went to become the second overall pick in the NFL draft by the New Orleans Saints after a college career that saw him run for 3,169 yards in three seasons, averaging 7.3 yards per carry, and score 42 touchdowns.<\/p>\n

The NCAA later investigated USC and Bush and determined he and his family had received impermissible benefits from a marketing agent while playing for the Trojans.<\/p>\n

The NCAA hit USC with severe sanctions in 2010 and later the Heisman Trust vacated Bush’s Heisman victory and asked him to return his trophy.<\/p>\n
