Very glad to see him doing good! Best of luck!

Any ideas about where he will go after this season? I'm sure he's being recruited.

Greg Rice is headed to WVU with Bob Huggins next year. He has already signed.

Do you have any link or proof? Not saying I don't believe you because I know Huggy bear was recruiting him in high school but just wondering.

My proof is talking to Greg personally. Idk if you believe me but its the truth, He signed about a month back he will be there next year.

I think we need proof of this. Not saying I dont believe you I just want to see proof.

It could very well be true. Huggins was recruiting Rice hard when he was in HS.

Well i have no proof other than what he has told me and Huggins did like him in High School so i really believe i mean we are good friends he wouldnt lie.

I hope it is true and i know he could definately play there but i still want proof.

You will have your proof when i can get a link and put it on here. I am not lying though its the truth 100%

I hope so mm.

I'll speak with Coach Henley of Holmes tomorrow and see if he can verify it for us all.

Looks like Baylor. Big 12.

Also making their first-ever appearance at the DII national tournament last year was Columbus State. The Cougars fell in the DII title game to Mott 83-73. The Cougars were 29-7 last season and won the Region 12A Championship, which is probably one of the toughest regions in NJCAA DII basketball. Head coach Pat Carlisle (2 years, 44-22) will have plenty of talent to repeat their 07-08 run as three starters and four total players return from the runner-up team. Pre-Season Second-Team All-American Greg Rice (6'4", 190 lbs.) will be the Cougars' one of the main offensive threats this year after coming off the bench last season. Rice poured in close to 10 points and five rebounds a contest last year and earned All-Tournament honors last season in Danville. The three returning starters include Jerrell Sanders (6'6", 210 lbs.), Greg LeSage (6'9", 200 lbs.) and Marcus Britt (6', 190 lbs.). Sanders contributed 9.3 points and 5.3 rebounds in 07-08, while LeSage averaged 10.0 points and 8.2 rebounds a contest. Britt earned All-Tournament honors for his play in Danville while averaging 10.8 points and 2.4 assists per game in the regular season. Freshmen Rayshwen Goins (6'5", 240 lbs.) and Rod Hurst (6'2", 170 lbs.) will see plenty of action for Carisle's Cougars.
