Since 2005, Toledo has started 8, 9, 9, 9, 8, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 11, 6, 6, 9, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 8 and 4 white players. In 2026 the Rockets are projected to start 5.

Hopefully Walendzak gets some carries this year. Had 458 yards in 2024 before getting his touches reduced dramatically last season.

Thanks @Leonardfan for the team history.

I’ll do more digging and see what the buzz around Walendzak is going into the season.
