Coach Kelvin Sampson will be back with the Cougars this year after being a candidate to coach the Orlando Magic. The Magic are rumored to be interested in tanking this season, and that may have been a factor in his decision to stay in Houston. Sampson just led the Cougars to their first NCAA Tournament win since 1983, so the program will be in good hands.

The Houston Texans came into this draft with many anticipating they would trade up to address their need on the offensive line. Instead, the Texans elected to trade back to pick No. 34 after agreeing to a deal with the Giants.

The Texans also receive pick number 99, and a 2026 third-round selection.

When Ohio State's offensive lineman Donovan Jackson and Texas receiver Matthew Golden went off the board right in front of them, the Texans decided to go with a contingency plan, it seems.

We'll have to wait until Friday night to see what the Texans do with their picks.
