NASSAU, Bahamas — Amid the palm trees, balmy weather, beautiful beaches, and a stay at the sprawling Atlantis resort, the University of Toledo football team had its first practice in the Bahamas on Tuesday morning.
After arriving in the Bahamas late Monday afternoon, Toledo has settled in ahead of Friday’s Makers Wanted Bahamas Bowl game against Florida International.
While the trip offers plenty in the form of entertainment, the Toledo coaching staff and players have the approach that this is a business trip.
Toledo has lost its last two bowl appearances, with the 2016 and 2017 season ending in losses to Appalachian State at the Camelia Bowl and the Dollar General Bowl respectively.
