Semi-OT: Rice is going to run the triple option going forward

They should’ve just kept Baliff, he got more out of Rice than anyone could or probably will. This hire screams of throwing darts and hitting the cat.

Yes, they might:

Owen Carter gave Ohio State commit Devin Sanchez of North Shore absolute hell in the 3rd round of the playoffs last year (North Shore still beat us), and he’s the best WR I have seen at Cy-Fair HS in my 21 years there. I tried to get UH on him late, but apparently they didn’t have anything available for him at the time. I might be more than a little biased, but he’d be a great pickup for UH.

I wish Rice was a perma OOC opponent, and if it weren’t, Memphis/Tulane for the AAC G5. Texas Southern, HCU, and PVAMU for our FCS.

But yeah the triple option is a solid offense for an island of misfit toys. Worked great at the academies and they can come up against some teams without them knowing. Until they hit conference and get beat out.
