Kelvin Sampson, Houston Cougars men's basketball head coach, speaks with the media after Houston defeated Tulane 71-50 Saturday afternoon. Houston improves to 10-1 overall and 5-1 in the American Athletic Conference. Coach Sampson discusses Marcus Sasser's three-point shooting versus Tulane. Sasser scored a career-high 28 points and made 8 three-point shots in the game. Coach Sampson says his team took advantage of Tulane's match-up zone defense and attacked the zone with good ball movement and finding the open man. Coach Sampson also mentions he challenged senior Brison Gresham to rebound like he's capable. Energy and effort. He also mentions the roles of the guards did not change -- despite Caleb Mills' entering the NCAA Transfer Portal. Coach also discusses what guard Cam Tyson has gone through this offseason and up season to now; the benefits of Cam against a zone defense; and getting Cam minutes in previous games but his defense isn't as good as some of his teammates. He also discusses freshman Kiyron Powell's performance today and also his promising future as well as whether or not he thinks about how many minutes to play the freshmen on the team. Next, he also discusses the Houston Cougars program's ability to reload after losing players to graduation and / or transfer. Finally, he discusses Tramon Mark's performance versus Tulane and letting Tramon play through his mistakes because he can use the minutes to get better. And, also the rebounding production from the team. You achieve what you emphasize.
