As I read up more on Rice through stuff posted on Rivals, I thought this was a pretty interesting connection: De'Sean Butler was dying to come to Rutgers, but the previous regime wouldn't give him a scholarship. Saint Josephs was one of the few to be offering him, and he was set to go there but three other players jumped on their offers quicker and there just wasn't room for him. He ended up at WVU and the rest is history. Mike Rice, of course, was the guy who was responsible for Butler's recruitment at Saint Joe's.
