GoCoogs Interviews: Jacob McFarland and Kordel Jefferson

The top-ranked Houston Cougars have a Big 12 championship in their sights. They lead the conference by a game with three to play. But the future is never far from Kelvin Sampson’s mind, and two current redshirts are expected to be a big part of that plan.

Jacob McFarland and Kordelius (Kordel) Jefferson are sitting out this season, working on their bodies and basketball IQ. Both have gained serious weight, and both have improved as players. It’s pretty easy to see their enthusiasm for what’s to come.

Coaches rave about McFarland’s game, and Jefferson gets his shot off as fast as anyone on the team. This week, GoCoogs Interviews takes a step back to look at who’s next: Jacob and Jefferson.
