Wonder if Owa regrets his decision?
I assume he feels like he'll go to the NFL. Then the academics at UCLA don't mean as much. Why not play for the in state, elite program that'll get you to the NFL and your family can watch every game?
I'm still bent about it.

Re: Wonder if Owa regrets his decision?
Probably not. He chose UCLA for its academics. Isn't he majoring in engineering? Not every player's priority is athletic success.
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”

He certainly blew a couple containments last night. He now knows what a lot of players have experienced at the hands of Oregon's offense.snapt wrote:He's certainly not majoring in edge containment!

He probably regretted it most as he was picking up his shattered pride left strewn all over the field after the game. That, and trying to find his jock strap and the flesh from his face being melted off right in front of his family.

Eh, I personally hate Los Angeles. It all depends on whether these athletes want to live in a big city or small town.Boom wrote:Southern California > Eugene, Oregonhualalai06 wrote:I assume he feels like he'll go to the NFL.

I wouldn't ever move to live there, but I differently wouldn't have mind spending a couple of my college years in Beverly Hills.duckgrad99 wrote:Eh, I personally hate Los Angeles.

Re: Wonder if Owa regrets his decision?
why would he regret not coming here? we weren't even in his final 3 per his own words. move on folks. he'd probably be RS'ing at UO. I'm sure he's glad he's playing.

Agree . Lived there for about 3 years. You couldn't pay me enough to live down there again.duckgrad99 wrote:Eh, I personally hate Los Angeles.
