Rice looking to be big in Boise

Ex-Yak boss Rice looking to football team for inspiration ||

YAKIMA, Wash. — Leon Rice almost didn’t make it to Boise State.

Not that he nearly turned the Broncos down, mind you, when they wanted to make him their head basketball coach late last month. But he almost didn’t make it — literally — to Boise for his introductory press conference.

“I accepted the job at about 3:30 in the afternoon,” Rice said in a recent telephone interview, “and they wanted to do a press conference at 1 o’clock the next day. My family had never been to Boise and we were starting spring break, so I thought, let’s all jump in the car and drive down. So we got organized, got a dog sitter, the whole deal. And with three kids we’re making the usual McDonald’s stops and those types of things, but we’re driving along and it’s about 2 in the morning.

“My 12-year-old is awake, and he’s up in the front seat with me and we’re having a great time on this family adventure of ours. Then and all of a sudden I look down and we’re almost out of gas. And I have no idea where we are. So I’m thinking, ‘This is going to be a really good story in about 10 years, but we’re going to run out of gas here, in the middle of nowhere.’”

He didn’t, of course.

And later that day all of the Rices — wife Robin and sons Brock, Max (10) and Kade (6) — were introduced by Boise State athletic director Gene Bleymaier.

Among Bleymaier’s more salient remarks was, “Leon has been intimately involved in building one of the most successful programs in the country. Our goal is to do the same here.”

He could have said the goal is to elevate Broncos men’s hoops to the level of Broncos football, which is one of the most successful programs in the country — regardless of sport or conference.

Or to the level of Gonzaga basketball.

That’s clearly the hope, and Rice is fine with it.

Among other things, he was Mark Few’s right-hand man for 11 years. He helped design the blueprint.

BSU’s football fame, by the way, is something Rice considers a help and not a hindrance.

“There isn’t a sports guy in the country,” he said, “who doesn’t know who we are and where we are. Everybody knows about our blue turf. The football program here is an asset to our program.

“And what I’ve seen is a commitment to basketball with a blueprint from football. We’re building a new locker room, and the administration has increased the budget enough for me to hire my staff (Dave Wojcik from Wake Forest, Shaun Vandiver from Wyoming and Jeff Linder from the University of San Francisco, and Rice will make one more such hire).”

It has also produced money enough to hire Rice himself, whose base salary will be $400,000 for each of his contract’s five years.

It took not just money, but an opportunity of Boise State’s caliber to lure Rice from Gonzaga just as it had taken something as attractive as the Bulldogs’ assistant’s job to make him leave Yakima Valley Community College in 1999.

“One of my mentors coached at the same junior college for 32 years,” he said of Edmonds’ Keith Kingsbury. “He had a great life coaching all those years at that one school, a junior college.”

Another of Rice’s mentors was Dean Nicholson, a coach who was more than a superior and teacher during Leon’s four-year tenure at YVCC.

Brock Rice was born in Yakima, and his father fondly recalled evenings at Sherar Gym when the youngster would be treated to gifts from “Grandpa Dean and Grandma Char (Nicholson’s wife, Charlene).”

Said Nicholson, from his home in Concord, Calif., “I think the world of Leon, and I enjoyed every minute we spent together at YVC. I had three good years there and he had four, although think he was probably more responsible for our success than I was.”

Said Rice, “Gosh, I had a great time in Yakima. We had the program going — what were we, 31-2 my last year there? Robin and I truly enjoyed it. I could have been genuinely happy coaching there for a long time.”

Just as he could have happily continued as Few’s associate head coach.

But when opportunities such as Boise State’s present themselves, someone of Rice’s age (46) and family status must wonder how many more there might be.

There had been prior head coaching offers Rice had declined. This time, however, the time and place — and yes, the money — seemed ideal.

“Obviously Leon felt that way,” Nicholson said. “I was surprised, to be honest with you. He had an awfully good thing going at Gonzaga, but I’m not completely familiar with the money situation. I do know they have a beautiful facility at Boise State, and they have a pretty good model with the football team.”

So will Rice lobby to have a blue floor installed at BSU’s 12,380-seat Taco Bell Arena?

“If it helps us win basketball games, I just might,” he said.

Already Rice has taken his sons out for a romp on the blue turf and has also met one of its prime occupants — quarterback Kellen Moore.

“He stopped by my office the other day and introduced himself,” Rice said. “We had a really nice chat.”

He also had spoken with Nicholson, someone Rice has often consulted regarding his professional future.

“Talked to him yesterday,” Rice said. “I told him we’d have to schedule some games in the Bay Area so he could come and see us, and of course he was already ahead of me.

“He just said, ‘San Jose State’s in your league.’”

In basketball, yes. In football, not really.

But Leon Rice is trying to change that.

Yakima Valley sweeps Big Bend

April 25, 2010 by  

YAKIMA, Wash. — Giving up nine runs in a baseball game might be a bad thing for most teams on most days.

But not for Yakima Valley on Saturday.

The Yaks, hammering out 16 hits in the first game of their doubleheader with Big Bend, won 14-9 and followed with a 6-1 triumph at breezy Parker Field to maintain their first-place tie in the Eastern Region.

Yakima Valley, which has won nine of its last 10, improved to 13-3 in region play and 25-8 overall. NWAACC top-ranked Columbia Basin, which YVCC swept earlier this month and will visit Yakima on May 12, swept Walla Walla on Saturday to improve to 13-3 and 24-8.

Jacob Mann had a monster day for the Yaks, going 5-for-6 in the opener with two doubles, four runs scored and four batted in. He followed by going 3-for-5 in the second game with a run-scoring triple in the fourth inning.

The Yaks continue region play Wednesday at home against Blue Mountain.

First CWU scrimmage defensive

April 25, 2010 by  

ELLENSBURG, Wash. — Not one to mince words, Blaine Bennett had a typically candid response when asked about Central Washington’s offense during its first spring scrimmage Saturday.

“Who played well on offense?” he asked rhetorically. “Well, no one, really. I don’t think any of them played well. I’m probably more critical of the offense and I haven’t broken it down yet, but that’s pretty much the way it looked to me.”

Not terribly surprising given that the Wildcats return more mainstays from defense than offense from last year’s 12-1 team that reached the NCAA Division II quarterfinals. And also because none of CWU’s three quarterbacks was available given that sophomore Ryan Robertson has undergone surgery on his non-throwing hand, redshirt freshman David Weisner has a sprained shoulder and another redshirt freshman, Prosser’s Jordan Durbin, was ill.

“We pulled a guy off the track team to play quarterback,” Bennett quipped.

The coach did praise his defense, particularly linemen Eugene Germany, Tyrell Nielsen and ex-Kittitas standout Mike Reno, who has been moved to tackle from linebacker.

West Valley lineman Taylor Tanasse also drew praise, as did linebackers Adam Bighill and Emeka Aludogbu.

Another scrimmage will be held next Saturday with the spring game scheduled for May 8 at 1 p.m.
