In any event, I really don’t see this team winning more than 8 games when all is said and done. Which sounds nice, since we’ve grown used to 6 & 7 win seasons, but that also would mean as many as 6 losses, and 8-6 ain’t anything special. The mediocrity that this fan base accepts even though Toledo has all the resources to own the MAC is mind boggling. But nothing will change unless the fan base demands it. That’s just the simple truth.

The new AD has to demand it. We may be stuck with Candle's contract, but the AD should tell him today that it won't be renewed. Candle thinks he's a genius, but in reality he doesn't know how to be a head coach. I don't care what the final score against BG was, Candle didn't have his players ready to play. Now we have two injured quarterbacks who are hurt because of the beatings they take behind one of the worst offensive lines at UT, EVER. The whole situation makes me sick.

And then there's this quote from Candle after the game, "It was a great football game to watch.." For who, someone who is living in Hell?

What a quote. That was a terribly played game between two bad teams. Have friends that have no rooting interest that watch these teams and think the quality of play is garbage. Only person that showed great heart was the qb. Broke his hand early cause the o line can’t block anyone and somehow made plays despite getting killed all night and with receivers dropping balls left and right.
