Like his demeanor FIU's top offensive threat tends to work quietly.

It comes as no surprise before the Panthers start their daily practice to find senior Thomas Owens already drenched in sweat from trying to perfect his routes or from honing his footwork. After practice Owens is usually one of the last players to leave, opting to get more work in or help out a fellow receiver or defensive back.

One of the most productive receivers in FIU's 16-year football history -- Owens or T.O. as he's known to his teammates and coaches -- has embraced the grind to become one of college football's best all-around receivers.
