Toledo running backs have field day against Central Michigan

Jason Candle wasn’t fond of the question, and he made his distaste apparent.

Last Monday, a reporter asked the Toledo coach about his running backs and their lack of production through the season’s first four games. He gave a combative, patronizing answer.

After Jacquez Stuart (122 yards, TD) and Micah Kelly (64 yards, TD) combined for 186 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday’s 38-17 win over Central Michigan, Candle was again asked about the running backs, this time regarding their impressive performance against the Chippewas.

“Oh, they’re good again? They must have put on their Superman suits,” Candle said.
