#3 Houston

by Peter Bard

National Championships: 0

Head Coach: Guy Lewis

Nickname: Cougars

Remember when this team was good? I don’t. But they were. There’s a lot of star talent on this squad, especially in the frontcourt, featuring The Dream, Elvin Hayes, and Clyde Drexler. There aren’t more than two or three teams that can physically match up with the Cougars there, either in the halfcourt or on the break. They do tend to struggle with free throws, though, which might cause them some problems.
