Eli Rice Enters The Transfer Portal


Inside Nebraska has confirmed with a source that Husker guard Eli Rice has entered the transfer portal.

Rice, a 6-foot-8, 213-pounder, played in 17 games as a true freshman before a high-ankle sprain at practice following the Maryland game on Jan. 27 sidelined him for the rest of the season.

Rice averaged 4.2 points and 1.6 rebounds per game while shooting 37% from 3-point range (10-of-27). Rice often provided a scoring spark off the bench for the Huskers and made a 3-pointer in Big Ten games against Iowa, Wisconsin and Michigan State.

Against Iowa in January, Rice scored 11 points, grabbed four rebounds and dished out one assist. His season-high of 16 points came in non-conference play against Florida A&M.

A former 3-star recruit in the 2023 class out of Gallatin, Tenn., who spent a season at IMG Academy in Florida, Rice signed with Nebraska over other programs like Georgetown and VCU.

Rice becomes the second Husker to enter his name in the transfer portal, joining guard Ramel Lloyd Jr. Nebraska now has three open scholarship spots for the 2024-25 season:
