The students adore Rice, its just a real small gem that appeals to a special group of bright students. But, SMU should easily hold its own in terms of football recruiting.
No we weren't at all a consideration. The only schools he remotely considerd were A&M, UH, Rice. Cy Fair is in way, way West Houston. He was very homesick and wanted to return to Houston or close to it.
Out of highschools A&M and Michigan were his final 2 schools. The fact that he bypassed A&M now, one year later, tells me he more than likely decided he really wanted to actually be in the city of Houston, rather than 1.5 hours away in College Station.
