Impact Rice certainly looked comfortable with his new team and picked right back up from what he showed in a dazzling freshman campaign with Washington State that saw him average 14.8 points, 3.8 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.6 steals per contest. Rice played alongside Kanaan Carlyle in the backcourt in this one, but it could very well be veteran Trey Galloway once the regular season begins, as he was out of this one with a knee injury. Rice will be hoping to prove that he belongs in the discussion of top PG's in the Big Ten.
