The most famous NCAA scandal involving the University of Southern California football program centered around a multi-year infractions investigation concluding in 2010. The probe investigated allegations that star running back Reggie Bush and his family received improper financial benefits and housing assistance from sports agents while he was an active student-athlete. The resulting NCAA penalties were severe, including a two-year postseason bowl ban, the forfeiture of numerous wins, the vacation of the 2004 national championship, and major scholarship reductions.
