Haynes comes to Toledo after spending the last four seasons as an assistant coach for the Golden Flashes. Haynes is KSU s all-time leader in assists (625) and steals (229) and became the first Golden Flash to earn the MAC s top player honor in An Honorable Mention All-American that year as well, Haynes led Kent State to the MAC regular season and tournament titles and a berth in the NCAA Tournament. HITTING THE BOOKS Toledo received the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Team Academic Excellence Award last summer with their 3.16 grade-point average in the campaign ranking 10th nationally. The award is in its fourth year of existence, and the Rockets have received the award in two of the last three years. UT is also the only Mid-American Conference school to be honored this season.

HITTING THE BOOKS II The Rockets registered a 3.0 grade-point average last spring for the fifth time in the last six semesters. The Rockets notched a GPA in the recently completed spring semester, and their roster heading into the campaign possesses a 3.25 cumulative GPA.

Also posting 3.0 GPA s or better in the spring semester were Nathan Boothe and Steve Taylor, Jr., junior Jonathan Williams and freshmen Fred John Jr., Nate Navigato and Jaelan Sanford. In addition, the Rockets Academic Progress Rate score from the four-year period from to is 985, a figure that is tied for second in the Mid-American Conference.
