Message: [QUOTE="Zelda Zonk, post: 2158244, member: 966"] I have a 'memory distortion' where Owens is concerned. I really liked him as a player, and the few times i saw him on campus, he seemed like such a good person. But, i saw the physical attributes and skills, and all i can remember are disappointments. I thought he would have been a better shooter, if he had more of a DC attitude, but i saw him as thinking/caring to much about the outcome... And wasn't he there through the same era as Charles Smith and Jerome Lane at Pitt? Is my recollection off, when i 'remember' us being beaten by those guys too often, with Owens coming up short against them? Checking wiki, maybe they only had one season against each other... I dunno... It's weird with him — i expected more, and yet his statistics are pretty fantastic. I have Wallace ahead of him for his Alpha Dog mentality and the '96 run. [/QUOTE]
