Rice signed 6-6 Damion McDowell, Jr. and 6-8 Jaden Geron. Both are from California and shooting guard/small forward types. Not sure if either is ranked nationally, but Geron's brother plays at Washington.
We didn't sign any intergalactic stars, but the outgoing head of NASA (Jim Bridenstine) is a Rice grad who is using up his eligibility.

Hmm, I don't know enough to comment. I just know that NASA has pretty consistently been receiving a smaller and smaller share of our federal budget spending since 1991. It was at 1.05% of the federal budget in 1991, and has dwindled down to 0.48%. It's a good thing the private sector has picked up some of the slack.
Back to the topic though, UTSA hasn't made any huge acquisitions, but Jordan Ivy-Curry, Cedric Alley Jr., and Eric Parrish might be three who could have an immediate impact. Here's our humble offering to the thread...
Aleu Aleu - 6'7" 170 G/F, originally from Kenya, moved to Austin, Texas in 2012, sophomore transfer from Temple College
Dhieu Deing - 6'5" 166 G, sophomore transfer from USC-Aiken.
Jordan Ivy-Curry - 6'2" 165 G, Freshman from La Marque HS, Texas 4A Player of the Year in 2020, Led all Texas high schools in scoring (30.5 points, 7.1 assists, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 steals)
Lachlan Bofinger - 6'6" 215 F, Freshman from Sydney Australia, was on the Australia U17 FIBA World Cup team
Cedric Alley Jr. - 6'6" 225 F, RS Junior transfer from UH, 3-Star (0.8333 composite in HS), saw more action for UH as a RS freshman than as a RS sophomore as he was one of only 7 players who played in all 37 games that year.
Eric Parrish - 6'6" 195 G/F, Junior transfer from Nevada (though he played in all 32 games, with 21 starts as a Freshman at Akron). Played at Bossier Parrish Community College as a sophomore and was ranked by 247Sports as the fourth-best junior college prospect in the nation.

Both signed in the early signing period. Chapmaville and Logan are 14 miles apart and are rivals. So for the past 4 years OAK and Early have been going at it on the court. Both schools are roughly 1 hour 1/2 away from Huntington.
