veteran Rice guard who stretched the floor and battled through injuries
Cory Pflieger was a steady, experienced Rice guard whose game was built on shooting and toughness: across his Rice career, he played 123 games, made 170 threes, and shot .374 from deep, all while fighting through an ankle injury and a knee-related medical waiver season. In the 2010 season, he was the type of low-drama, high-IQ fit coaches love—reliable, battle-tested, and proven in a system that needed spacing and composure. If you want a ready-made shooter with resilience and veteran edge, he’s a sneaky-good add.
