I recently recorded an hour interview with Dan Simrell, who is the QB Coach at Trine University.
He had a lot of memories and stories about his time at Toledo, and thought some Toledo fans might want to hear it.

Congratulations on the OT win against Western! Good luck against Iowa State and the rest of the season.
Thanks Broadcaster for the post. Dan Simrell is truly one of the most genuinely nice guy to have ever been a part of UT football. Trine is lucky to have a coach with all that experience in their program.
Thanks for the post Broadcaster. I was at Dan's last game in the Glass Bowl against Jerry Rhome and Howard Twilley; what talent and it was much colder than Dan indicated. We stayed until the end waiting for the sun to come up and the ensuing thaw. ;-)

Absolutely!!!
Thanks for the responses, and the kind words.
It's great to hear your perspectives! I appreciate it.
Haven't had time to hear the Podcast, but am looking forward to hearing it this weekend. Thanks for sharing it. Coach Simrell got a raw deal, but he still bleeds midnight blue and is the ultimate Toledo Rocket. Love the man. Go Rockets!!!!!!

Nice guy. Great Rocket. But didn't get a raw deal. It was time for a change. Wonder what this board would look like if he was still the Head Coach as must as some rip Campbell. It was 3 running plays and punt almost every series on offense.
Best thing is he brought Tampa to us.......

You're making me blush Terry
Sim was a great guy. As with a lot of coaches, his time ran its course which was early in my career at UT. He believed in me and gave me the opportunity for which I will always be appreciative. I look forward to hearing the podcast.
