Shift Bushing or worse?

Ok my friend and I were in the Z last night and I let him drive it, he went way too easy on it. He was being timid cause he didnt want to mess anything up, so when I got back in the seat and we were going to the freeway on ramp I decided to let her go. Well once i was done having fun and about at freeway speeds I Shifted to third and after i let go of the shifter and it was in gear. It started to grind, and the throttle kept going despite the fact that I gave it no gas. Anyways I stuck the clutch in and went to 4th. Now while the shaft only falls out of 3rd it's real loose and you can wiggle it about 1 inch from side to side. It made it home ok... I suspect it just needs a new bushing, or am I way off? What are the other more frightening and expensive posibilities? I'll not have time to work on it until next weekend.

Thanks,
Brent
