The role of a leader is not to come up with all the great ideas. The role of a leader is to create an environment in which great ideas can happen.

University of Houston and Texans favorite Tank Dell took the time to take photos with a bunch of fans after the Houston Rockets game. On a lost night for the Rockets, Dell still left some fans with priceless memories.

Actually Buc-ee’s pays more than being a touring musician 😭

[TheLinkU @TheLinkUNIL]

Our CRO, @LandonGoesling, understands where NIL is headed.
Not just fundraising. Not just support. Real business impact.

When NIL becomes part of a company’s bottom line strategy, everything changes.

Are you a business owner wanting to improve your business spend and get involved with college athletes? We can help.

Kent State power forward Delrecco Gillespie announced on his Instagram account that he's transferring to Houston. Big pickup for Kelvin Sampson. Gillespie averaged 17.7 points and 11.3 rebounds per game for Golden Flashes last season, shooting 51 percent from the field.

While the nation’s eyes are on the University of Houston during March Madness, here’s another reason to know our name: we’re a Forbes top 50 public university, and we’re still climbing.

Kelvin Sampson shares what separates good programs from great ones.

It comes down to 3 things.

"The best teams come from the coaching staffs that are the best demanders. There are certain non-negotiables."

"We're not going to sit down and talk about this...This is the way it's done and we expect this effort."

No debate. No negotiation. Just the standard.

"And those eventually will be called standards. So - standards, accountability, and then we've raised our expectations."

"Here's our expectations, and our expectation is probably a little bit higher than most people's. We don't talk about them."

The standard is how you operate every day.

"We practiced this morning at 6:00. Probably our best practice in the last 6 or 7 days. But that's because our standards are raising. Our kids are holding each other accountable now."

Then he said the line that defines a great program:
"That's when you know you've got a great program."

When the players hold each other accountable not just the coaches. That's when you've built something real.

The formula is:
1. Standards
2. Accountability
3. Raised Expectations.

A great team isn't made of individuals seeking personal glory - it's made of people who hold each other accountable and work towards a common goal

Coogs fans came deep to this one! The band stopped playing so you can hear them spell it out. #Houston #MarchMadness #FotheCity #GoCoogs @KPRC2

Houston might have the best culture in college basketball

@CrankItUpCoogs Plenty of good Vietnamese food around there. On NASA Parkway alone you have Pho Hoang (traditional), Pho Barr (more Americanized but still great), and Nobi, a pub with great Vietnamese and Viet-fusion dishes. Scarsdale area is full of great Vietnamese food too.

Kansas's 47 points against Houston is the fewest KU have scored in a game since only managing 46 points on March 9th, 2024... against Houston.

Nobody beats @ChancellorTV at getting great quotes out of athletes, like he always has

[Chancellor Johnson @ChancellorTV]

Emanuel Sharp is the last of a dying breed of players who stayed their entire collegiate career in one place.

When I asked why, he explained how the grass isn’t always greener.

But my favorite quote:

“I couldn’t think of going to another school and we’re getting scored on every possession. That would drive me crazy.” 😂
