Smith: Inside the 'pressure is a privilege' workings of UH's top-ranked basketball program
UH assistant coach Kellen Sampson helps forward J'Wan Roberts with some individual drills during a Feb. 14 practice at Fertitta Center.For Kelvin, the alternating hands-on and -off approach is completely intentional. When he tries to reach and get more out of the young men who comprise the best team in the country, the Coogs’ head coach wants maximum impact without wasted time.The man who represents the rebirth of UH basketball is also passing the game on and elevating those around him.
“It always bothered me a little bit when I was coming up,” Kelvin said. “They were recruiters — they’d just recruit. They didn’t get to do anything else.” Kelvin’s oversized face, #ForTheCity and a collection of UH players capture a moment almost a decade in the making. “We talk about it a lot, but pressure is a privilege,” Kellen said. “Because you are on a team that is having a good year, it comes with it. If we were having a bad year, it wouldn’t matter.”
