Texas DB receiving interest
Springtown, Texas safety Al Owens is certainly not having a problem piling up mail from schools in and outside of Texas.
The 6-foot-2, 182-pounder was an all-district selection as a sophomore and a junior. Owens says that schools such as Iowa, Oklahoma State, Kansas State, Kansas, SMU, and Missouri have all shown him early interest as well. That doesn't necessarily mean he has a favorite.

"At the moment, not really," Owens said about a leading school. "I've just gotten a lot of letters from different schools."
The only junior day Owens has attended was at SMU.
"It went well," Owens said about his visit. "The coaches didn't talk to me about an offer, but it was good."
Owens says other visit plans include a NIKE Combine in California. He says that he's not in any rush to make a decision.
"I guess I want to see which schools offer," Owens said. "It just depends who offers and all that. I'm not real sure at the moment (when I want to decide)."
Owens says that when describing his abilities at safety, he explains that he's an "aggressive" player who likes to "run down hill and hit people."
