On Monday, Houston head basketball coach Kelvin Sampson started a clothing and shoe drive to help those dealing with Hurricane Harvey.
On Tuesday, Houston baseball followed suit. Todd Whitting, the head coach of the Cougars, posted the following message to his Twitter account – asking for help from the college baseball world.
