It's because he had Duffy starting and went 0-3Toddy was going just fine until he decided to follow AOB's lead in messing with his halves. Dropping Clifford and moving Purdue who had been killing it in the centres looks to be contender for the worst coaching decision of the year. If you are going to experiment with half combinations, do it during the pre-season. Not halfway through the season when combinations are supposed to start gelling.
Brought in Clifford who is a journeyman and while they won a few games, it was only papering over the cracks.
Toddy just didn't have much of an option. p.s. I hate the guy for leaving us when we were in dire straits.
