2011 Tight End Drew Owens Receives UNC Offer

Posted Jul 6, 2009
We’ve been talking about early offers this past week; how about rising junior Drew Owens of Ardrey Kell High? Owens, a 6-foot-5, 230-pound TE, has received on-the-spot offers after one-day evaluations by North Carolina, Tennessee and Vanderbilt. Wondering why? Owens has been clocked at 4.59 seconds in the 40-yard dash, an excellent time for a guy 50 pounds lighter. And he has a vertical jump of 35 inches. (Charlotte Observer)
