We feel like we're playing pretty well at times. We lost three games in the Sarasota tournament alone. Plus, we're a pretty young team. We have eight new freshman players this year.

Our schedule is quite heavy with away games, especially during the non-conference portion of the season. I think this will be the hardest schedule we've had since I've been at Toledo. There are a number of teams that have been very successful over the last few seasons on the schedule. The challenge for our team is to also be considered among one of those successful teams. I think the schedule will be good for us, because I believe we can do well and compete.

We've got to pick up some wins quick. The games are starting to pile up. We've got to get a sense of urgency.

Chris had two outstanding games. He was our leader. The Bahamian teams attacked with very quick, physical guards and it was a good challenge. In the second game he had nine assists and no turnovers. That's a great indicator of things to come.

The good part is that we've won 11 games to start the season. The bad part is, they were all home games.

I feel like I've had so many health issues. But I'm working through it. I can't afford to miss games and take time off.
