Sampson: Houston’s goals still ‘right there’ for the taking

Head coach Kelvin Sampson went on his weekly radio show and reflected on Houston’s early-season goals and the progress the team has made to achieve those goals on Monday evening.

“Every goal we had at the beginning of the season is still right there for us,” Sampson said.

According to the head coach, the players came together and set their sights on winning the American Athletic Conference championship again.

“These kids have positioned themselves to repeat,” Sampson said. “It’s right there for them.”

Nine games into conference play and the Cougars are tied with Cincinnati for second place in the AAC and are only a half-game behind Tulsa.
