In a grueling off-season that is preparing the Cougars for the 2016 football season, players took Wednesday afternoon off to attend an event that will help shape the rest of their lives.
The UH Athletics Career Fair was held in the TDECU Stadium Club and it allowed players to network with potential employers from around Houston. The function served as the finale of this year’s “Real Life Wednesdays,” a program head coach Tom Herman started that focuses on developing skills for his players to confidently enter the workforce.
“This career day is a culmination of what we have been doing all spring through ‘Real Life Wednesdays’,” Kevin Washington, the team chaplain, said.
