    Arsalan Kazemi chooses to play at Rice over Seton Hall, Maryland, Memphis and a host of other schools. This is a big commit for Rice, not only because he is a great player, but also because he would be the first Iranian to play NCAA basketball

    Patterson School, eh?

    I wish this guy the best but I know the Patterson School is a prep school where academic disasters go to get fixed up.

    you call a basketball player committing to Rice of all places taking over the world? LMFAO.

    Iranians can TRY to take over the world, but um... ya'll still suck at sports.

    I am pretty sure it's legit. I read the same in either the Chronicle or another basketball publication a while back.
