Long, rangy freshman DB with ball-hawking upside
Jamar Owens enters Indiana in the 2026 season as a consensus three-star defensive back and top-100 defensive back recruit, bringing a proven high-school résumé of 70 tackles, 3 interceptions, 2 forced fumbles, and 6 pass breakups as a junior. At 6-foot, 177 pounds, he looks like a classic upside pick: physical, active, and instinctive in the secondary, with enough production to hint at real playmaking juice. The fit is intriguing if Indiana wants length, urgency, and a DB who already shows a nose for the football.
