Rice is a Gallatin native who the Blue Raiders pursued in the 2024 portal when he was transferring from Nebraska. Overall a solid pickup. We’ll see if the all around game improves as he goes down a level.

Oglesby has played in six seasons of college basketball, but one was the voided Covid year and two others he played <7 games due to injury. I imagine he’ll still have to apply for a waiver to play one more season.
