Steve Sarkisian rips Reggie Bush

Washington head coach Steve Sarkisian didn't mince words when asked about former USC running back Reggie Bush's decision to return the Heisman Trophy but not apologize.
"He had a chance to apologize, look like the good guy," Sarkisian told ESPN's Shelley Smith. "But in giving it back and not apologizing, he just looks like an idiot again."

Bush forfeited the legendary award Tuesday, but said Thursday that his decision was "not an admission of guilt," just the best way to end the controversy.
His decision came after an arduous summer in which Bush's former USC program was hit with numerous sanctions by the NCAA due to improper benefits Bush, his family and basketball O.J. Mayo received.
The Heisman Trust had been debating whether to strip Bush of the award.
Sarkisian was part of the offensive staff at USC during 2005, the year Bush won the Heisman.
"No matter how much money he got paid, that didn't affect how we prepared," Sarkisian told Smith. "We weren't the best team in football because of what he or his parents took."
It's the first time college football's top award was returned by a recipient. One of the few guidelines given to Heisman Trophy voters is that a player must be in compliance with NCAA rules to be eligible for the trophy.
