The
@UHouston
BOR approved the
@UHCougarFB
Football Operations/Development building today. A big piece for
#GoCoogs
recruiting as they prepare for
@Big12Conference
. Here is a look at some renderings for the project.
Former 4-Star Houston area standout and USC freshman RB Brandon Campbell (
@2021BC
) who entered the transfer portal a few weeks ago tells me he will be on an official visit to
@UHCougarFB
tomorrow.
#GoCoogs
Former Tomball standout
@JosephManjack
is transferring back home from USC to
@UHCougarFB
with 3 years of eligibility remaining and a redshirt if he needs it. Real big get for
#GoCoogs
.
Real talk
#GoCoogs
fans. At least acknowledge the emotion in
@Holgorsendana
voice in that post-game interview. Could this emotional win be a turning point for the team heading into a bye week?
What a finish to the
@Birmingham_Bowl
and finish to the 2021 season for
#GoCoogs
.
@Holgorsendana
leads his team to 12 wins in year 3 and at this point the team appears to be returning a ton of talent for the 2022 season. They're definitely heading in the right direction now.
I've confirmed that former Texas and Port Niches-Groves offensive tackle Jaylen Garth has transferred to
#GoCoogs
as was referenced at last night's Cage Rage.
New faces that are eligible for
#GoCoogs
this fall:
DE Isaiah Chambers (TCU)
LB Darrion Owens (Miami)
S Deontay Anderson (Ole Miss)
CB Nick Watkins (Notre Dame)
WR Raelon Singleton (Utah)
QB Quinten Dormady (Tenn)
RB Terence Williams (Baylor)
It was truly great to be out at
#GoCoogs
first day of spring ball this morning. Huge thank you to
@UHCougarFB
&
@CoachWEFritz
for allowing media out for the entirety of practice for the 1st time in my 15+ years. So much to soak up out there!

@_7even5ivee
). He says relationships and trust in the direction of the program convinced him the time was now. (Free)
#GoCoogs
pick up a big one in West Orange-Stark 2023 DB
@Jamaalshaw5
. He is the Cougars 11th commitment of the class and lands as the 4th highest rated prospect in the class.
#GoCoogs
land a big one from the transfer portal as former Mew Mexico and FB Marshall DB Adari Haulcy chooses to come home to Houston to finish his career. Was a freshman All-American in 2022.

@ChidozieNwankw
hanging tough in the steak eating competition here at
@TasteofTexas
. Moving on to the 38 oz Tomahawk. Less than a handful of players still going.
In case it hasn’t been brought up, not only did
@UHCougarFB
make a splash on social media nationally today with their uniform unveil, surely
@CollegeGameDay
will touch on this one too adding more exposure for
#GoCoogs
Saturday.
#GoCoogs
will sign 3 today and that lands

pick up a commitment from Michigan TE transfer Mustapha Muhammad. The former 4-star originally from
@RPHS_FB
took an official visit recently and was very positive afterwards.
Tremendous rebound for
#GoCoogs
after the season opening loss. They stayed the course and truly got better as the season went on. They're playing with house money next week, but that's right where they want to be.
West Virginia transfer WR Sam Brown still has 4 years of eligibility left after redshirting this season. He was a high 3-Star signee out of Georgia in the 2020 class.
#GoCoogs
see their second pick of the night as
@MarcusJonesocho
is picked by the New England Patriots in the 3rd round. Very versatile player who could impact in a variety of ways.
#GoCoogs
pick up an overnight commitment from
@247Sports
top ranked JUCO Edge In the 2022 class. Another quality pickup for the Cougars out of Hutchinson CC.
Is
@UHCougarFB
experiencing a Tank Dell effect already on the recruiting front? The elite group of WR recruits expected at Saturday’s

opener could be a sign that they are. (Free)
The commitment of

#GoCoogs
add a late piece from the JUCO ranks as edge Zavian Tibbs commits to join Houston. He was a late qualifier out of Killeen and spent a season at Kilgore. They’ll count him against the 2024 class.
@MassoudSofian
add another feather to your cap. Congratulations on being named a finalist for the offensive player of the year for THE HOUSTON TD CLUB. TD Club Scholar nominee, and now a POY nominee.

#GoCoogs
this weekend. One of nearly a dozen high priority recruits on campus this final weekend before Early Signing Period.
#GoCoogs
landed a big one this morning in
@Pancakehunter59
. An early offer and maintained relationship led Hunter to take another look and he liked what he saw. (VIP)
Mikal Harrison-Pilot becomes the 16th commitment of the 2023
#GoCoogs
class. He becomes the 3rd 4-star in
@UHCougarFB
2023 class and the highest rated in the class. He edges out Matthew Golden for 4th highest signee in modern recruiting history.
#GoCoogs
add another piece from the transfer portal, this time from nearby as TSU CB Isaiah Hamilton chooses to stay close to home (Channelview). He was a 1st team All-SWAC selection in 2022 with 5 INTs, including 2 pick-6s. He has 2 years of eligibility remaining.
Demetrius Hunter would also be the first 4-Star high school offensive lineman
#GoCoogs
have signed in the modern recruiting era. He would become the 7th highest recruit overall to sign with the Cougars in that era as well.
