Yee-hah! An unexpected, but VERY pleasant surprise (as the latest we had heard was that he was going into broadcasting). Will only help our offense...and recruiting.

What great news. I remember the players saying a couple of years ago how helpful he had been during a couple of weeks in the fall.

Good for Lance, Good for Rice

Since he's a student-coach, its probably the opposite, with the University charging him $20,000/semester (or whatever the going rate is) for the privilege!

Wouldn't the Astros be on the hook for his remaining schooling?

My comment was made purely in jest.

Good for Lance in that he's coming back to go to school.

Good for Rice and Rice baseball. A high profile former student returning to complete his education and help out his home team.
