Ray Rice is keeping high school football ... but not in New Jersey

Ray Rice, high school football running backs coach.

The former Rutgers star is the new position coach at his alma mater of New Rochelle High School (N.Y.), according to News12's Kevin Devaney Jr. Rice previously volunteered with the team but has officially taken over as of Thursday, reports said.

A false report from an ESPN reporter in April indicated that Rice had been hired as an assistant at New Jersey powerhouse Don Bosco, where his former Rutgers teammate Mike Teel is the first-year head coach.

Will Rice ever be inducted into Rutgers HOF?
