VIDEO: ESPN3 Broadcast Previewing the Toledo Rockets
TOLEDO, Ohio – Coming off a nine-win season and with five All-MAC players back in the fold, the Toledo Rockets have high expectations for 2017. Head coach Jason Candle wouldn’t have it any other way. The Rockets were 9-4 in Candle’s debut as head coach, earning a berth into the Raycom Media Camellia Bowl. They came up one game short of their ultimate goal, a trip to the MAC Championship Game, leaving additional incentive for 2017.
Candle has 44 letterwinners returning this season, including 15 starters (6 offense, 7 defense, 2 specialists).
