Message: [QUOTE="Owens guy, post: 4591252, member: 5156"] Back in 2004 and a few message boards ago, Billy’s situation leaving the team and school was something that seemed to be discussed only on the ‘pay side’ of the message board. Maybe no one really truly knew was happening or no one wanted to publicly share Billy’s struggles online. There were some hints at mental health issues and at that time mental health wasn’t as commonly recognized as a disease and not something a person did to themselves. I remember Billy’s situation being not openly discussed similarly to Frank Howard’s later NCAA suspension- something almost secretively referred to but never really openly talked about & explained on the board.
