Al Golden, Chris Ash to Rutgers? Top choices
Was told former Miami coach Al Golden & Ohio State DC Chris Ash among top Rutgers “high interest” candidates

That pick could skyrocket Rutgers to the heights of mediocrity!
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:29 PM ^
Please take Ash.

So what if Chris Ash goes to Rutgers, and Narduzzi somehow ended up at PSU. Would have Harb/Durk, Urb/Ash, MD/Duzzi.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:32 PM ^
Based on this board the last 24 hrs, that would be 5 a$$oles...and Jim.

Man, this message board went "gay porno" so fast, I didn't even notice...
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:49 PM ^
I just commented cause I read gay porno
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:34 PM ^
Please let Ash go, and I would love to see the above plan come to fruition. That would make for some ridiculous rivalry (read: beat down) games.

Ash has lifted OSU's D up a lot since he came on 2 yrs ago - take is a$$. Fickell D's were more fun.

Al Golden would be smart to wait for the Penn State job to open up.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:42 PM ^
There's no way he's getting the Penn State job.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:45 PM ^

I just checked his profile... hot damn. It seems like a slam dunk for them. I would get rid of Franklin right now and hire him.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:33 PM ^
I'd hate if they hired Ash then OSU hired Pruitt...

Could be or they could promote Mel Tucker (as a Bears fan do it Bama!). We'll see I guess.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:38 PM ^
I mean, let's be honest here, he would be a pretty good choice for Rutgers. He is 49-33 in his last seven years as a Head Coach. Rutgers could do a lot worse.

I lol'd. And then cried at my desk for a little bit.

I totally think we should make TWIS for the last two days around here. It's been a meltdown as epic as any loss I can remember.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:49 PM ^
I'm really hoping Ash gets the job.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:49 PM ^
I think these are each upgrades from prior staffs. B1G East could easily be the hardest league in the nation, if it isn't already.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:55 PM ^
To be fair, it's pretty hard to downgrade from the previous Rutgers and Maryland staffs.
December 3rd, 2015 at 2:57 PM ^
But in the past B1G coaching searches have been the current MAC dujour (beckman, hazzell, etc). At least now even the bottom feeders seem to be trying to improve themselves...
December 3rd, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
Agreed. I would be happier if they stay bottom-feeders.
December 3rd, 2015 at 3:04 PM ^
I'm pretty sure both would carry on the tradition of Rutgers losing pretty well.

December 3rd, 2015 at 3:52 PM ^
Greg Schiano is available.
December 3rd, 2015 at 4:07 PM ^
He'll win @ Rutgers for sure.
December 3rd, 2015 at 5:59 PM ^
did Temple play on the level of the Big Ten East?
December 3rd, 2015 at 6:41 PM ^
December 3rd, 2015 at 5:41 PM ^
If Ash stays at OSU, then Michigan can take its sweet time with this hire, but if Ash leaves, then Michigan has to hire theirs before OSU gets its. The competition there for a single name or two is too predictable. And presumably time-sensitive.

You're right about Illinois, but I think Minnesota made the right move in giving Claeys the job. Their athletic department is looking for a new AD and is still reeling from a scandal involving their last AD. No qualified coach would want to walk into that situation.

Ash would be like Durkin (taking a chance on a hot assistant in the hopes that he turns out to be the next Urban Meyer). The Rut doesn't need that right now, and they can't afford to gamble and lose because they are losing money and subsidizing athletics heavily. They need a steady hand to make slow inroads in in-state recruiting, which will eventually translate on the field. Golden is a Jersey guy, he is a good recruiter, and his one flaw is that he's not a good gameday coach. If it's Golden and a good OC, then I can see this working for them.
