  Overview

DID YOU KNOW?

The Cougars have been to a bowl game for four consecutive years. Their 34-28 win over Air Force in the Armed Forces Bowl on December 31, 2008 was the program's first bowl win since 1980

When you join the Houston team as a corporate partner, you become an active part of a vibrant university that is the one of the nation's premier metropolitan research and teaching institutions.

At the same time, your affiliation with the Cougars brings you into the rewarding world of intercollegiate athletics, where pursuit of championships coincides with individual development of tomorrow's academic, business, and community leaders.

Since its establishment in 1927, Houston has excelled through a wide array of academic and professional degree programs, a national research agenda and a vast number of outreach programs. Located in one of the nation's most vibrant and expansive cities. Houston draws students from around the nation and the world and is one of the most diverse college campuses in the country, with only 38% of the student body being Caucasian.

The Department of Athletics, along with IMG Sports, is firmly committed to upholding the tradition and excellence that has marked Houston throughout its history. We welcome you to join us in that effort as a member of our Cougar team.

"I wanted to share with you some of the great results that State Farm has had with University of Houston and our event marketing efforts compared with other venues and particularly Universities that we are involved in this Fall.

As you know, our event marketing consisted of a tent/inflatable and agents to work the booth to garner leads. We measure results from the leads we garner. For each of the U of H games that we did this at, we garnered 300+ leads at each one. On average with all of our Universities (TCU, SMU, UNT, TT, Baylor, SFA, Texas State, WTAMU, UT, UTEP, and yet to be done TAMU) we are garnering 200 leads per event.

What made the event at U of H so successful was the family atmosphere, tailgating area that makes it conducive for people to come and relax prior to the game and the diversity of the students/fans that make pre-game events lively.

We appreciate all that you have done and continue to do for State Farm with the little extras that make this partnership premier." - Angela Ward, State Farm-Texas Marketing Gameday Signage

    -Kirsten McKaskle, Director, Agency College Recruiting

  "Administaff has been involved with ISP Sports at the University of Houston for several years. Our involvement has ranged from title sponsoring the Bayou Bucket, an annual football game between the University of Houston and Rice University, to sponsorship and tickets to all major sports at the University. My experience with ISP Sports has been extremely positive. The value we receive from our relationship with ISP and the University is outstanding. Their willingness to develop program that meet the needs at Administaff has made the decision to continue our involvement with them an easy one. In fact, we intend to increase our financial commitment to the University in 2008."

    - Jay Mincks, Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing

  "We have enjoyed being the pre-game show sponsor for Cougar radio this season and hope to continue that role in the future. I thought you would like to hear a good piece of information. Our firm received a request for proposal from a large local government agency to bid on audit services for 2009. When I delivered the proposals to the agency, the executive director made a special point to tell me how our firm made it on the bid list. He was listening to the radio pregame show for Cougar football and heard our ad, which ISP produced, and added us to the list. I don't believe that we would have made that list without you. I would like to thank you and all of your team and all of UH athletics for that."
