Rice isn't even good at baseball anymore.

They were really only good under one coach, and barely any of that was in the SWC

They made 23 straight NCAA tourneys (1995-2017), and never made one before or after that streak. During that they won their conference (WAC/CUSA) in 18 of 19 years. They've never won one before or after that streak.

I wonder if there is a guy like that in any other sport? Take a garbage program, make them elite, and then have them return to garbage. Kansas State football has had moments without Bill Snyder, but he might be the closest?

I'm sure it will be a huge improvement

Here's the video the tweet referenced:

Sounds like it's a huge buzzkill for fakes and anything interesting on punts, though Florida would've probably been grateful for this during the Les era.

considering how LSU is doing this, I kind of hope they get two more years of eligibility for Shaq

Hmmm. I’d assume there aren’t that many people as successful as him overall, let alone at non-resourced programs.

I would imagine there’s someone at a lower level who’s done Something like that, and maybe some bad power program. But really most of your power programs have at least a few ups and downs.

Them trying to pull the former St. John’s kid is … curious and a bad sign.
