That's putting it a little bluntly -- but I would prefer that Rice go Div III before participating in where this all appears to be heading. It's just a total divorce from the original idea of collegiate athletics. Not that it's likely of course, but the best that could happen would be for like-minded institutions in P5 (ND, Stanford, N'western, Vandy, Duke) to come to their ethical senses and reject the stench of today's NCAA. This could conceivably lead to a renewal of the original idea, and the creation of a 2nd generation NCAA....and leave the pro-development business league to UT, A&M, OU, LSU, et al.
So the writing is on the wall for Rice, Tulsa, SMU, probably Tulane, and a lot of C-USA schools, etc. - Div. III
