Kellen Sampson

Kellen Sampson has joined the UH men’s basketball coaching staff as an assistant coach.

It will be the first time that Kellen has worked for his father, Kelvin Sampson, as a full-time assistant coach. He will assist in all aspects of the  program.

“Kellen is extremely organized and extremely disciplined. He has a great way about him with the players and builds relationships. The city and University community, players, coaches and staff will enjoy him because of his personality. He has a bright future in this business,” Kelvin said. “My dad was my high school coach, and he was always the guy I looked up to. One of my great memories of coaching Oklahoma was coaching Kellen, and this is an opportunity to reunite. The father-son issue is there, but I could not have hired a better up-and-coming young coach than Kellen.”
