“It was the simple fact they told the kid he could commit. When the kid went to commit, they said no. That really kind of bothered Owen. People don’t understand the relationship that these kids have. That really bothered Owen.”

I think there's a lot of truth to this. No one wants to be stood up at the alter and with Pappoe seeing it first hand, it probably had an impact on him.

I still think the relationship with Coach Williams and the early playing time is the biggest attraction for him to come to AU.
