2012–13 Toledo Rockets men's basketball team

The 2012–13 Toledo Rockets men's basketball team represented the University of Toledo during the 2012–13 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Rockets, led by third year head coach Tod Kowalczyk, played their home games at the Savage Arena and were members of the West Division of the Mid-American Conference. Due to low APR scores, the Rockets were ineligible for post season play, including the MAC Tournament. They finished the season 15–13, 10–6 in MAC play to finish in a tie for the West Division championship. However, due to their postseason ban, the MAC did not allow them to be division champions.

gollark: It has to be in RAM at least, to be actually run.
gollark: Well, sure, yes, and you could also edit the code to not contain sandboxing.
gollark: Counting attacks from someone who already controls the environment the code is running in is kind of pointless when considering RCEoR and most stuff.
gollark: Okay, sure.
