Recruiting for 2020 helps bring hope for upcoming season

Houston wrapped up its season Saturday, losing 56-41 to Navy. The Cougars finished their season 4-8 overall and 2-6 in conference, marking their worst campaign since 2004.

For first-year head coach Dana Holgorsen, that doesn’t change a thing about the future, particularly for the 2020 recruits and beyond.

“Everybody we are recruiting right now, we have really good relationships with, and they know exactly who we are and where we’re going,” Holgorsen said. “I don’t care about a 4-8 season, no one hates losing more than me.”

The Cougars’ dismal season came mostly by way of a bevy of redshirts, injuries and a schedule they wouldn’t wish upon their biggest enemy.
