Boise State men’s basketball coach Leon Rice waded across the Boise River on Saturday before his team played San Diego State in front of a sold-out crowd at Taco Bell Arena. The video was shown in the arena with about 8 minutes left in the 83-30 Boise State win.
Rice said last month that he would “wade across” the Boise River if the Broncos played in front of a packed house this season.
On Wednesday, the school posted a video to Twitter featuring him “training” for his chilly moment in the river in a cold tub.
The river has ranged from 37 degrees to 42 degrees this month.
