Pro career

After graduating from the Southern Methodist University in 1997, he was successful in international play, spending several seasons in Europe, including periods of time spent on teams in France, Switzerland, and Germany. He never got a chance to play in the NBA, although he participated in an Orlando Magic preseason game in 2004.

His performances in the Euroleague earned him a spot on the All-Euroleague Second Team in the Euroleague 2000-01 season, while he was playing for the Lugano Snakes.

Rich played for the Gary Steelheads of the Continental Basketball Association (CBA) from 2002 to 2005. He was selected as a member of the All-CBA Second Team in 2004 and 2005, and the All-Defensive Team in 2003 and 2004.

An explosive point guard, Rich ended his career playing for the Frankfurt Skyliners in the German Basketball Bundesliga.
