The University of Toledo announced former Offensive Coordinator Jason Candle as the 27th head football coach replacing former coach Matt Campbell after a five-day span that felt like five years.
Candle is taking over a program that just won nine games and has improved each season, something a lot of new coaches can’t say when taking over a program.
But was this the right hire for the Rockets?
I think so.
Although I have to admit I thought Jon Heacock would be named the head coach because of his 31 years of coaching experience, this hire makes just as much sense.
