30 minute countdown!

up to 289 users... who thinks at 1:30 we will be near 350 users viewing and then the site will crash?

Hopefully we fixed those problems with the board update.

I'm not buying any of these rumors untill it is on scou or rivals (not the message boards but an actual article)

:yeah

Can't wait for this adventure to end.

Heard Owa just cancelled his ESPN announcement and will wait and decide over the next week or two. He is still just not sure where he wants to go and really wants to step back and go over everything again and weigh out everything accordingly. Heard this from "very reliable source." He is just a very deliberate young man and wants no doubt when he decides.

This would be shocking, but compared to what everything else is saying is good news if true.

This is something that actually wouldn't shock me if it were true.

I cant take this anymore i hope that he is N today. But if it takes a couple more weeks thats cool as long as he goes where we all know he should!

from these posts it sounds like he wants to go to NU but is scared to move that far away from home. I think his heart still lies at NU but is scared to be away from his family. it is the classic home sick delima.

Agreed. I've felt all along that the distance factor is bigger for Owa himself than he's letting on. It is a tough decision for a family-oriented kid, but if he goes to Nebraska, he won't regret it.

that doesn't make sense if he goes to UCLA, if you are over three hours away from home, it's all the same distance: a plane flight.

EXACTLY! Everyone has "inside" info and is an expert on signing day. It's actually fairly annoying.......

 

[Husker_x]

Is the announcement on ESPN or ESPNU?

ESPNU is still saying that Owa will be making his announcement today.

 

[kchusker_chris]

2600 could very well be the post# - is this like Price is Right where they couldn't go over w/ their guess? 27 minutes

Isn't Owa's signing going to be live somewhere? If so, where?

ESPNU and ESPN 360.com. I am watching it live and they just went to a commercial. They also stated that it was coming up next (as of 1:03 pm cent time).

True, however he would be playing in the Pac-10 and depending on the schedule would play in his home state possibly twice a year and also would play in Washington. So he would be closer for family to go watch.

you need to think about tv as well. being in the pac-10 his family will most likely see all of his games if he goes to ucla....it's not just about how long the flight is.

Nevermind, I found it.
