USC'S UNDISPUTED TITLE SUDDENLY IN DISPUTE?

Profootballtalk.com has learned that Michael Michaels and New Era Sports and Entertainment contend that the first payments made to LaMar Griffin, the stepfather of Reggie Bush, occurred in 2004.

A press release issued on Friday night claims that Michaels gave $28,000 to Griffin to "clear up some debt." The payment was made at Griffin's request so that he could "focus" on the new business enterprise aimed at profiting from Bush's marketing potential.

Brian Watkins, counsel for New Era, tells us that the payment was made in 2004.

If the allegations of Watkins and Michaels in this regard are accurate, Bush's ineligibility first arose in the 2004 season.

And if it can be shown that the folks at USC knew or should have known about Bush's status, that crystal football the Trojans won in January 2005 might be smashed into a million little pieces.

We're not saying that USC ultimately will be required to forfeit its 2004 national title. But losing the championship after the fact is now squarely within the range of potential consequences that the Trojans face, in light of the revelation that Griffin allegedly began to get paid for his stepson's potential during the season in which the championship was secured.
