Still bummed out about this loss. Fell asleep when Cougars were ahead in the second half. I can't understand why UH can't recruit a top player nationally. We are a "system" team largely without top tier recruits. There are no Elvin Hayes' or Akeems' out there.
I just looked it up for ***** and giggles, for the past decade they're all from the DFW area. I don't understand why. Quentin Grimes and Ken Lofton JR are the most recents I've found
Heh, maybe the quick search didn't consider Katy as being part of Houston? Also, is 2016 "recent times"?
They have recruited some great ones...and have some in the pipeline. Mercy Miller was a 4 star. Jarace Walker was super highly recruited. I think part of it is that Sampson attracts a particular kind of player...if you want don't want to work your ass off, UH isn't for you. I see Drew recruit guys at Baylor that would never sign up for what Sampson has kids do to get ready to play...and they play far softer because of it.
Honestly, Joseph Tugler is one of the more recent Houston-area recruits I can think of. Nowadays the best high school talent in Texas actually comes out of the DFW area. *EDIT* : Arceneaux is probably another one.
Guy Lewis award goes to the best player in Houston Galen Robinson Quintin Grimes Ramon Walker Tramon Mark UH has gotten more of the top players in the city than most realize. Tugler was a finalist his senior year
Nobody hustles more than Sharp, he definitely leads Collegiate basketball and most definitely the NBA in floor burns
