The 2019-20 season for the Cougars had plenty of growing pains, which showed through a few inconsistent performances and heartbreaking losses. But they also demonstrated flashes of dominance, displayed with the control of the glass and occasional display of suffocating defense.
The Cougars, however, have moved on from the shortened season and have begun looking at the upcoming campaign. While the futures of guards DeJon Jarreau and Nate Hinton are unknown, the program is thrilled with the players that are coming in next season.
“Really it’s five (new players that will be eligible to play) that we are really excited about (for the 2020-21 season),” said Kellen Sampson during the first Virtual Coaches Caravan last Wednesday.
