BIELEMA
u25a0 On Toledo overall: “There's not really one thing that you've got to watch. They're just extremely talented. I believe they have somewhere close to the same number of players up for national award lists that we have, which is very impressive. To watch those guys play, it's going to be a tremendous task in front of us right away.
