Major Applewhite did some work on the graduate transfer recruiting trail this offseason, and fans should be excited about the talent that hits the field this fall. Applewhite added some valuable depth at key defensive positions, and his team will need that side of the ball to thrive more than last year.
One pickup was former Miami Hurricanes linebacker, Darrion Owens. Owens will step in at a position that needs starters and depth in a hurry, but he’s still relatively unknown to the Cougars community. I reached out to Cam Underwood, Managing Editor of SB Nation’s Miami Hurricanes Blog “State of the U” to get some information on Owens.
