Agree. Burton goes to the 4, Crabtree gets the majority of minutes over Cayo.
I will happily eat crow on this one. Have we ever come back from a19-point second half deficit to win a game? Stunning. And then the refs tried to take it away with that absurd no call in the obvious back court. Kudos to Gilyard. A perfect night for him and one he will remember forever.
I’d rather see a Gilyard, Burton, Crabtree, Cayo,GG starting 5 but your lineup should be part of the rotation.
And DJ should get an opportunity alongside Crabtree.
Can we talk about toledo not shaking hands after the game? What was that? Did the coaches shake hands at least? I was not paying attention and only saw their players walking off and Burton trying to get their attention near the tunnel to shake their hands. A few did but I think some totally ignored him. Classless.
Is that not reviewable? It was under two minutes. I was surprised they didn’t go to the monitor.
No back court call and traveling. You miss two easy ones. We somehow beat that call. It was shocking to see a 19 point turn around. Seeing the 14-0 lead by Toledo was forgettable. It was the best of times and worst of times.
Oh such bad news … will be thinking of you all
Particularly odd since both coaches talked about adding this series given how much they liked playing each other in the NIT.
I would just blame Covid protocols if I were the Toledo coach
Agreed. We love having DJ on our team and hope this is only a minor blip for him. Please keep us updated. Will keep him in our prayers as well!
Assuming random dude behind me sitting in Section 9 - Row E tonight isn’t on this group who asked if I would stop standing right when we stormed first into the lead …
I don’t understand this team. They were atrocious to start and pretty damn good to end. If they played the majority of the time with the intensity they showed in the 2nd half, they can be a damn good team.
There were a couple of bad calls at the end that influenced the game but I think I saw something like 9 fouls to 1 at some point in the second half.
Coaches did not shake hands. Mooney was headed that way and Toledo coach told his kids to walk down the middle of the court and go out under the basket. It was weird.
Toledo got away with hacking the 💩 out of our guys in the first half. The refs called a few in the second half.

I don't recall ever seeing in person a team leave without shaking hands. And it's not like there was animosity during the game between the teams, at least not that was apparent. Very odd.
This game had all the makings of the typical Mooney dud. Glad we won. Sometimes you have to win ugly…and this was ugly.
I was asked to sit down in section 19 after Gilly stole the ball…..
The lack of shaking hands reminds me of DETROIT BASKETBALL. or at least the most despised player ever Isiah Thomas.
I coached my row E guy that sporting events allow for standing …
I guess the Toledo coach was so embarrassed that his team choked soooo badly that they out choked even Chris Mooney. Lowly feeling.
Thank goodness Nick was on tonight. Definitely needed his 3s and rebounding. Looked at the box and saw he only had 5 boards, but it seemed like more. He was definitely giving it his all and was gassed.
As far as Cayo goes, who usually works with the bigs? Maybe one of the assistants that left had that role last year? He was actually getting coaching from the stands, which I thought was really weird.

Cayo, Sal and Grace could not catch an inside the paint pass to save their ass.
Hahahahhahahaa. This is so funny every time it gets posted. Never gets old. Oh wait….
There’s a LOT of people who should chill out on the in game posting.
I can tell you what I saw…at the end the cheerleaders ran on court along with our bench. Toledos coach motioned for his guys to go on out as they were looking for guidance. Guys from Toledo did acknowledge our guys with a few head nods. Tyler did go to shake hands with them some did and some didn't. As far as calling them thugs(not sure who it was) as someone did, that’s a little out of pocket and unnecessary.
Couldn't exactly tell from the broadcast, but maybe because our guys were celebrating on the court, the Toledo coach didn't want his guys standing around waiting and watching us enjoy the win. Just a guess, because there didn't seem to be anything else specific that might have warranted it.
Watching the replay, Jacob looked pretty pissed that Toledo wasn't shaking hands. I don't really buy the explanation that there was too much happening on the court. That lasted like 10 seconds, no different from the end of any exciting game. Our guys were all lined up after that, waiting to shake hands. Bush league by Toledo.
Really sorry to hear this. He looks so promising. Hopefully, he can recover from these injuries and get back out there. Keep his head up. He is young and has a lot of great basketball ahead of him.
