On Monday, Rice revealed that he has a Top 5, those teams being Duke, Oregon, Louisville, Virginia Tech, and Southern Cal.

Rice also told 247Sports on Monday in an interview that he planned on committing this week. Considering that the end of the week is coming quickly, Rice will likely be announcing his decision very soon. 247Sports says that Duke is the current favorite, and landing the big defensive lineman would be a huge boost to to David Cutcliffe and Duke's 2018 recruiting class.
