He's a Jr. RB. May or may not declare for the draft. We dont know. But he's put up monster #s in the Big East the last 2 years, rushing for close to 1800yds and scoring 20TDs each season. He's a little short, listed at 5'9 205. Kindof a Maurice Jones-Drew build. He's got alot of wiggle, and being low to the ground, he runs with alot of leverage and power for his size. But get this. Here's the greatest reason to love this kid besides what you'll see on film or the #s. 910 total touches in 3 years. ZERO fumbles. I dont know if he'd fit in with the club because if we picked him up he'd probably have to take Kyle Eckel's spot of the 5th back, and Eckel is a big ST contributor. I doubt he'll end up a Patriot, and I think he'll get drafted somewhere between the 2nd and 4th rounds, but Rice is gonna be a nice player for someone. I kindof hope its us.
