Abstract: Let $Q$ be a compact, connected $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold, and assume that the geodesic flow is toric integrable. If $neq3$ is odd, or if $p{i}_1(Q)$ is infinite, we show that the cosphere bundle of $Q$ is equivariantly contactomorphic to the cosphere bundle of the torus $T^n$. As a consequence, $Q$ is homeomorphic to $T^n$.
