Dave Rice said his gameplan will get the Runnin’ Rebels back to their up-tempo offensive style.

"Winning is No. 1, I get that -- but style of play is going to be 1a," Rice said in a statement. "We're going to get out and run -- we’re the Runnin' Rebels. Everything will be up-tempo. We also want to be known for being consistent. Every day in practice and every single game, we want to be consistent. That is not exciting to hear and it sounds like coach-speak, but consistency leads to great results."

With Rice as an assistant coach, BYU ran their up-tempo offense with Jimmer Fredette leading the way and went to the Sweet 16.

"We'll have a learning curve anytime a new system is put in place, but we want our guys to have high expectations immediately," Rice said. "It's time to get to work."
