HOUSTON — A record-tying seven Rice Owls are among 1,989 college football players honored on Wednesday by the National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame as members of the 2024 NFF Hampshire Honor Society.
Chike Anigbogu, Jack Bradley, Izeya Floyd, Tim Horn, Luke McCaffrey, Myron Morrison, and Clay Servin were honored this year matching the Owls' 2022 class of honorees as the largest since the NFF created the Hampshire Honor Society in 2007.

Anigbogu was an Academic All-District selection in 2023 and was the Owls' special teams captain while amassing a career-high 26 tackles, including a pair of sacks last season.
Bradley was a four-year starter at tight end and had played in 52 consecutive games before being injured before the 11th game in 2023, which was two shy of matching the school record for consecutive games. He caught 56 passes in his career, which ranks eighth among Rice tight ends.
