Jeremiah Arnett gives Rice a big, durable right arm with weekend-starter upside
In the 2026 season, Jeremiah Arnett has been a workhorse for Rice, handling 25.2 innings with a 7.36 ERA, 11 strikeouts, and 12 walks while earning early wins and an honorable mention nod from the American Conference after a career-long 6.1-inning outing against Purdue. At 6-foot-4 and 215 pounds, he brings starter size, strike-throwing ability, and enough poise to eat innings, even if the command and consistency still need polish. If you need a physically mature RHP who can take the ball and battle, he’s interesting; if you need immediate plus-miss stuff, the fit is more cautious than flashy.
