Even if Torygg would agree to side with Ulfric against the Empire Ulfric had no reason to believe that Toryyg would, he didn't know that Torygg respected him, nor did he believe Torygg would abandon the Empire.

Just because it could have happened doesn't make Ulfric evil for not knowing it could have happened.
