At 4-1 in conference play, there is optimism on this board again.

Toledo on deck.

Boals is 1-11 all-time against Toledo as Ohio Head Coach.

Tod K is his Daddy.

Miami was up 30 in the first half at Toledo the other night.

This is not the Toledo of old.

Boals needs to get the Tod K gorilla off his back.

First game back from break… Simmons coming back to town… I think the crowd is gonna be a factor, juiced up and on him all night.

Hopefully they can weather an early storm and wear them down like they did vs Buffalo.

This definitely isn’t the same Toledo of old, but they’re still sitting at 3-1 in the MAC and beating OU is always a game you need to steal. OU should be feeling pretty confident having knocked off Buffalo and won the last 9 of 10. Haven’t seen a spread yet, I suspect it’ll be Toledo by a couple. Need to lock down their guards and not get beat up by Parks (6’10 C from Ohio State) and Craig on the boards.

Odds of Simmons getting a T against his old team are high. You know his former teammates will try to bait him. Hope staff makes this a coaching point heading into the game.

There is a part of me that hopes they do try to get into Javan’s head. IMO, from my observations, when he gets a little irritated about something he becomes an even bigger force around the basket. I think he’s also doing more of that when he thinks the team really needs it. It’s been fun to watch.

I think I've noticed that also. When someone guarding him gets in his grill it brings out the competitive juices in him.

And because of the Rockets' focus on Simmons, Hadaway may avoid a technical....
