Coogs in the Pros

I like the intagibles. Rebounding, assists.

But in the end, you gotta shoot. Thats how you survive in the NBA

29.4 FG % aint great. But alot of time to correct things

A real nice article, not about an ex-Coog, but one of Coach Sampson’s favorite players from his OU days – Eduardo Najera. Covers the story of how Coach recruited him.

“Sometimes you can look at a kid’s eyes and see all the way to Amsterdam,” said Sampson, who now is the basketball coach at the University of Houston, where he’s helped the Cougars reach two Final Four appearances. “But when you look at Eduardo’s eyes, they were hungry eyes. He just had this body language, the way he looked at you. It told me two things: This kid was really hungry, but he also needed help.”

Shead with 8 assists in 17 minutes last night (one TO).
