Briggs: For Toledo men's basketball, all's well that ends well after 'crazy' start to offseason

The Toledo men’s basketball program has won four straight Mid-American Conference championships, but Tod Kowalczyk is realistic about expectations going forward.

Now that the dust is settling on a frenetic offseason — which began with UT’s top three players declaring for free agency — he is not sure the Rockets will be as good next year.

No …

“I think we’ll be better,” Kowalczyk said.

What, expect anything different?

I stopped in the Rockets’ basketball offices the other day, and, as usual, the sun had found its way through the clouds of uncertainty.

In a transitory new era that has made it difficult for anyone to sustain success — let alone the mid-major programs that are turning into farm clubs for the big schools — Toledo endures as an exception.
