HOUSTON, Texas - For the second straight day the University of Houston football team took part in workouts in full pads, practicing under ominous clouds for the majority of the afternoon before moving indoors as thunderstorms hit downtown Houston.
Despite the threat of rain, the Cougars ran through their customary drills and individual and team workouts. Even moving on to the turf of Yeoman Field House didn't prevent Houston from continuing its preparations for its season opener against Oregon on September 1 at Reliant Stadium.
Houston will continue with one-a-day workouts Tuesday and Wednesday before a scheduled off day on Thursday. The Cougars are tentatively slated to begin two-a-days on Friday, August 12 with a 9:15 am walk-thru and a full practice later that afternoon at 2:30 pm.
