Wouldnt matter. The MW wold be a huge conference upgrade for Rice--especailly from a TV standpoint.

If Rice were located in Lubbock or El Paso. They're better off where they are though honestly they should be spending to be in the traditional power conferences or dropping to FCS/D-III. I just don't get their current M.O. they aren't with any academic or many regional peers. Rather than holding on to their legacy as a power school they're sinking like a rock.

Rice is like a lot of CUSA schools, hanging on to AAC/MWC hope. They did throw up a new 30 million dollar football building a few years ago.

The tiny enrollment thing is really killing them though. I think its one of the reasons they haven't found a spot somewhere yet.
