    I'd be happy to have him at Baylor.

    I saw him in high school. Contain the outside. His strong point is not running in between the tackles

    He looked pretty unproductive based on the few times I saw him play with Michigan. That Cyrus Gray kid at A&M is the better ball carrier.

    Clement had 160 of those run plays for Rice so I think he'd ultimately get more carries at UH but I agree that he'll produce at either place.

    I'm kinda torn on this kid, he was a pretty good prospect coming out of h.s. but was very average (at best) for Michigan, but that entire team was crap. I think Rice or UH would be both be a good fit for him. I personally think he'll just get lost in the shuffle at A&M or at any Big 12 team for that matter.

    It's official. Sam McGuffie is a Rice Owl. Rice beat out A&M and UH for his services. This is a huge pickup - Sam was Michigan's 2nd leading rusher this past season as a true freshman (only appearing in 9 games)

    That's the same article form click2houston.com. It's not official. That title is misleading.

    Truthfully, id look for other positions for sam. He just might be a little to small for RB, but its possible he will be good. He runs a 4.32 40 but only weighs 185. I say stick him at slot or something

    When Berman interviewed him a couple weeks ago, it seemed like he was leaning heavily towards Rice.

    he will have to sit out in 09, right?


    This is a great pick up for Rice.

    Rice also has Cy-Falls product Shane Turner waiting to play. He was also one of the areas top rbs a couple of years ago.

    I wonder if Rice will use McGuffie like Casey. In any case good for them.
    Rice is also getting a Alabama transfer QB Nick Fanuzzi (San Antonio).
    Nice to see that program investing in their football.
