Rice Football Recruiting: Breaking Down the 2024 Signees – Defense

February 7, 2024 By Matthew Bartlett

The 2024 Rice Football Recruiting class includes several hand-picked impact players on defense. Here’s how that side of the ball stacks up.

With the addition of 10 players on National Signing Day, the 2024 Rice football recruiting class has grown to 23 players. Of those players, 16 are current high school seniors and nine play on the defensive side of the ball plus one specialist.

This group now includes walk-on players in addition to scholarship athletes, but as head coach Mike Bloomgren was quick to point out, “All these kids are suited to come in here, play college football and compete and help the Owls.” We’ve gone position by position breaking down each of the new Owls and how they’ll help the program on the field.
