USC Football: How To Watch Reggie Bush’s Press Conference For Defamation Lawsuit
It was recently revealed that former USC football star Reggie Bush will be suing the NCAA for defamation after a lengthy process that included him being stripped of his college accolades including his legendary Heisman Trophy.
Bush's attorneys further explained the details as to what led the 38-year-old former RB to take action.
“The lawsuit is based on the NCAA maliciously attacking his character through a completely false and highly offensive statement that was widely reported in the media and substantially and irreparably damaged his reputation,” Bush’s attorneys Levi G. McCathern and Ty M. Sheaks said in a statement.

Bush also announced that he will be holding a press conference today at The Coliseum to further explain his own side of things and discuss the specifics of the lawsuit.
USC Football staff writer Connor Morrissette took to Twitter to share the news of the upcoming press conference and also revealed that their YouTube channel 'Inside Troy' will be live-streaming the press conference for anybody looking to watch.
"Reggie Bush has filed a defamation lawsuit against the NCAA. He claims the NCAA falsely issued a statement to reporters in 2021 saying he was involved in a “pay–for–play arrangement” while at USC. He’s holding a press conference today at the Coliseum to discuss the suit."
"I’ll have a live feed of the press conference, which starts at 11, on our Inside Troy YouTube channel."
Bush was named an All-American on two different occasions and took home a great amount of hardware during his time as a Trojan. His collegiate career was viewed differently by the committee due to questions surrounding payments that went his way and now that NIL rules have changed the game, it's clear that Bush believes that statements that were made about him were not fair.
