The Facts:
A San Diego sports marketer claims in a new book that he gave former Southern California RB and current Saint Bush nearly $300,000 in cash while Bush was still in college. Bush has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Based largely on interviews with Lloyd Lake, who tried to secure Bush as a client for the marketing company he attempted to launch, "Tarnished Heisman" claims the 2005 Heisman Trophy winner was provided with hotel stays, cash for shopping sprees and money to buy and customize a car. The book hints that USC coaches may have known about some of the arrangements, but it does not provide evidence that any school official was aware of alleged improper gifts. The problems might explain why USC HC Pete Carroll hasn't told the Falcons to get lost yet.
