Good luck to anyone who takes that job. It’s a alum base that is largely not local, students couldn’t care less, stadium is falling apart albeit a great stadium, the neighborhood hates game day traffic when people do attend games and one of the hardest schools to get into in the country. It being 60/40 undergrad to grad also hurts the “give a shite” level for its students
I’d love to rice football be something more than it is but good luck.

Rice football lacks commitment from the Athletic Department/school. I don't think they even have an equipment manager.

That comes from David Leebron, not so much the AD.

Rice doesn't even have the advantage of TCU/SMU as the highest profile school in it's own city. UH is more the hometown team, but most UH grads are more interested in the longhorns or A&M.
It's essentially an example of a school which doesn't really belong in FBS and will never belong. They don't need the publicity of a football program.

Feldman now saying they are going to hire one of the Stanford coordinators. That's the best option for a hopeless situation. At least those guys will understand recruiting to a school with rigorous academic standards. However, they support at Stanford is 10,0000 x the support at Rice.

I guess Todd Graham must have really burned some bridges there when he left to a conference rival after just one year.

Roper is a popular choice with the football alumni.
Stanford connections are popular with ADs office , since they've been having the conversation for at least a year
I want the Navy OC but his son has health issues which has stopped him moving in the past. But where better to go than Rice in the heart of the best Med Center in the Country

Sure Rice isn't a great job, but it has so much money. If they only wanted to spend more on FB they could be competitive. Go 6-6 or 7-5 at Rice and you're set-up for a better job. Better scheduling in non-conference would help.

Game day traffic? I live 2 blocks from the stadium and I haven't seen 10 cars parked on our street for a game in the last decade. There is WAY more traffic around the Village when Katy schedules their HS playoff games at Rice.
