Houston basketball coach Kelvin Sampson joined us on the Marching to Madness podcast to discuss expectations for the Cougars heading into the 2019-20 season.

Some of the topics Sampson discussed included:

  • Evaluating the toughness of recruits that they try to bring into the program
  • How the Cougars will try to replace Armoni Brooks and three key seniors
  • DeJon Jarreau's development as he enters a big season
  • What Sampson learned being a part of Jud Heathcote's coaching tree

Houston will top off the season on Nov. 12 against Alabama State.
