Now that Reggie Bush's Heisman is back where it belongs, Tim Brown thinks it's time for the NCAA to correct some of its wrongs ... saying he wants the org. to look into its past punishments and consider reversing them too.
Brown joined Harvey and Charles on "TMZ Live" on Wednesday to gloat about the Heisman Trust's decision to give its trophy back to Bush ... and then he said the NCAA should attempt to perform similar actions.
Specifically, the former Notre Dame star wide receiver said the organization should contemplate lifting bans for anyone who was thrown under the bus in the past for things that are now legal.
We are only a couple days into a new week and there's already so much to discuss. So, settle in for some new TMZ TV hot takes!!!

First up, on "TMZ Live," Harvey and Charles discuss Alec Baldwin's face-off with a pro-Palestine protester -- who aggressively got in the actor's face while in a Manhattan coffee shop.
Professor and activist Marc Lamont Hill is weighing in on the pro-Palestine protests on the Columbia campus, saying recent antisemitic acts are the work of a few bad apples, and not the majority of students.
We got the former CNN commentator and current CUNY professor Tuesday on "TMZ Live," where he shared his observations from the demonstrations ... which have led to hundreds of student arrests, but also countless others feeling unsafe.
According to Marc -- who's a former Columbia professor -- most of the protests he's observed have been peaceful, with students simply speaking out against Israel's actions in its war with Hamas.
Happy Monday, folks! To start your week on the right note, we have a good ol' dose of TMZ Hot Takes for you to enjoy!

On "TMZ Live" Harvey and Charles address the purported Taylor Swift album leak ... including the lyrics aimed at one of her famous exes!
Drake will be licking his wounds and bowing to King Kendrick Lamar ... a shameful sight Touré says will become Drake's reality after their rap battle is all said and done.
The tenured music and cultural critic hopped on "TMZ Live" on Thursday and pinpointed what he feels are dings in Drake's armor ... mainly his comeback response, which Touré isn't all that impressed with.
Drake has been owning up to his "Push Ups (Drop & Give Me Fifty)" track ... using the lyrics to tease both Metro Boomin and Kendrick's manager on social media ... but Touré feels sneaky tactics pale in comparison to the points K. Dot has already put on the board.
A poor woman lost her life because both she and her alleged murderer were being scammed by a nefarious third party -- and we talked to some experts who say ... this ain't gonna stop.
Tech expert Lance Ulanoff -- who's covered this field as Editor at TechRadar -- came on "TMZ Live" Wednesday to discuss the fatal shooting of Loletha Hall ... who was gunned down late last month in Ohio after 81-year-old William Brock mistook her for someone trying to secure a ransom out of him.

Lance tells us this is an extreme case of these types of stories -- which he says happen all the time, but usually don't rise to this level of violence and tragedy.
Unfortunately, here it did, and he says it's a cautionary tale on the dangers of these bad actors.
El patrimonio de O.J. Simpson no está repleto de dinero como se podría esperar, ni es suficiente para satisfacer su deuda con la familia de Ron Goldman, o al menos eso afirma su albacea.
El abogado de Simpson, Malcolm LaVergne, habló con "TMZ Live" el martes sobre las finanzas de O.J. tras su muerte la semana pasada. Según Malcolm, O.J. murió con menos de 5 cifras en su cuenta bancaria de Nevada, y en general, tenía menos que millones a su nombre.
En sus últimos días, O.J. estaba recibiendo la cantidad máxima de la seguridad social, así como las pensiones por su tiempo como estrella de la NFL y como actor. Malcolm afirma que esos pagos totalizaron menos de los $ 400K por año que se han informado.
O.J. Simpson's estate is NOT flush with the kinda cash you'd expect -- nor is it enough to satisfy his debt to Ron Goldman's family ... at least that's what his executor is claiming.
We got Simpson's longtime attorney Malcolm LaVergne Tuesday on "TMZ Live," and he opened up about O.J.'s finances following his death last week. As Malcolm put it, O.J. died with less than 5-figures in one Nevada bank account, and overall ... had less than millions to his name.
In his final days, O.J. was receiving the maximum amount of social security, as well as pensions from his time as an NFL star and actor. Malcolm claims those payments totaled less than the $400K per year that's been reported.
Diving into some juicy celeb gossip can definitely spice up a slow Monday ... and we've got you covered with some TMZ Hot Takes.
