Longhorn News/Discussion (Non-Recruiting)

Don't know if this is old news or not, but I just read on IT Humidor that Tyler Owens has been moved to LB. 
Interesting, fast dude.  From what I remember he hasn’t played football for too many years.  Wonder if he has bulked up a bit to make this move a viable one.

 
Ash said he wanted a fast defense and by putting Overshown and Owens at LB, that could very well be true.

Well, that is an extremely fast defense.  Imagine the potential of having Ossai, Coburn, Sweat/Ojomo, and Bimage/Graham up front; Overshown and Owens in the middle; Green and Jamison on the outside; and Sterns, Foster and one of Cook/Thompson/or Adimora on the back end at any given time. All of the back 7 can cover and move sideline to sideline.  That is a lot of speed and versatility for the B12. When you play a more smashmouth running type team you can play more of Juwan Mitchell and Ayodele in the middle.

There is a logjam at safety. And thats with Foster injured.

Owens is 6'3 or 6'4 and weighs about 220, so he walks in bigger than some that we have. Plus, he dinged a 10.3 100 not long ago.

I like the move. 

Remember when Reggie Bush was caught from behind by Drew Kelson? That was a statement play and helped change the mindset on both sides.
