Welcome to Rice University! I am extremely excited about your interest in Rice Men’s Basketball. Take a look and you will quickly see the vast opportunities that Rice has to offer. All you need to do is consider some of the amazing things that have already happened here. We have nationally renowned academics, with Nobel Prize winning faculty, national championship caliber athletics, and a location in the heart of one of the greatest cities in America. The city of Houston is full of wonderful museum and theatre districts, entertainment and shopping opportunities, and five major professional sports teams.



I look forward to the challenge of building a successful and respected program. Through hard work, great attitude, and with the support of fans like you I am certain that will happen. If you are new and know nothing about Rice, I invite you to learn more about us and you will surely see that the possibilities here are limitless and that great things will continue to happen. For those of you who are already fans, thank you for your continued passion for the program.

I hope to see you at a game soon!

Go Owls,



Coach Braun
