Sampson while at Houston has impressive NCAA tournament wins over SDSU (11 seed), Georgia State (14 seed), Ohio State (11 seed), Cleveland State (15 seed), Rutgers (10 seed), Syracuse (11 seed), Oregon State (12 seed). 

Literally any game they've played against a team that was better than a #10 seed they've lost.

it took a lucky buzzer beater by michigan to beat houston in round 2.  the next year kentucky barely beat houston.  you act like there are other schools that have done better than houston in the tournament the past 3 or so years.  we lost to the national champs this past season.  no shame in that.

lol. thats not his MO.  when i say "legit recruits" i mean the ones ranked as a 5 star. he has gotten his fair share of players ranked in the top 100.   He might "offer" them but he dont like to get one and dones unless its the right situation. example would be bryce griggs for the 2022 class.  we probably wont get him but the fit makes sense.  sampson is all about building a program and having those players here more than 1 year.  thats one reason why penny hasnt made memphis legit his 3 years here.  

In 8 recruiting cycles with Sampson leading the program Houston has legit landed one recruit ranked in the top 100, lol. 

So he just offers scholarships to players for ish and giggles? Why did he offer 16 top 100 recruits an opportunity to play at Houston over the last two years, because he didn't want them?

Houston has never beaten a 9 seed or better under Sampson.

because he recruits players that fit his culture and plan on being at a school for more than 1 year. thats why he has made the program legit since he has been hc.  he tells recruits straight up they will have to earn a starting job.  5 star recruits want to be pampered and automatically become a starter when they reach campus.  not to mention most 5 stars have 1 foot out the door anyway.

Then why is he offering them scholarships?
