The UH football team has faced cancellations and postponements left and right to start the 2020 season. Some have been like blindsided tackles and others have come with plenty of advanced notice, but the sting of both is the same.

While the Cougars hope that the contest against Tulane finally kicks off the year, the players themselves say that they navigated the early adversity and didn’t let it ruin the work they put in since returning to campus in the middle of the summer.

“It wasn’t difficult because we know the situation of 2020,” said senior cornerback Damarion Williams on Monday when speaking to reporters through a Zoom call.
