Reggie Bush has an idol?
So when you are Reggie Bush growing up in California, who is your football idol/favorite player? You guessed it – Kyle Turley!!! Who? yep, during the Chiefs/Saints game the other night, the announcer said the game featured Reggie Bush and his childhood favorite player, Kyle Turley. We ran across this in searching the archives:
“When [Bush] was a youngster living near the campus of San Diego State University, a young Aztecs football player lived in an apartment across the street and was drafted by an NFL team.
Bush knew him. And when the player was selected in the first round of the draft, Bush asked that the player bring back some team gear. The player signed the items and gave them to Bush.
Bush says he always remembered what Kyle Turley, the Saints’ 1998 first-round pick, did for him, and Bush admits that was another lesson that stuck: take time out for others.”
