I honestly feel bad for Ash, own demise or not, he was one of the hottest coordinators in the country... now will be relegated to infamy... buyout be damned, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him bolt.
He's owed 10M guaranteed. That man is going NOWHERE on his own.
Yes, but i be he WANTS to be fired. I'm pretty sure his morning commute feels like this:
Yup and then miss out on 30 years of higher earnings potential bc he’ll be a DC at Wagner.He's owed 10M guaranteed. That man is going NOWHERE on his own.
From Michigan's MGoBlog opponent recap of "Rutger" for this week:
Rutger (1-6, 1-0 Sun Belt)
Last week: Lost at Maryland, 34-7
Recap: Oh come the hell on.
This is the 7th time since 2016 that Rutger has averaged fewer than three yards per pass in a game. Over that stretch, the rest of the Big Ten COMBINED has six such games. Only one other team – Iowa – has had as many as two. This is the sixth time in the last 27 games they have been held to under 50 yards passing. For comparison, in the last 27 games, Georgia Tech – a triple option team – has been held to fewer than 50 passing yards only five times.
Every pass they threw in the last 29 minutes of the game was intercepted. Every. Single. One.
It took Michigan exactly one pass attempt against Maryland to accumulate more receiving YAFHAF (yards after a fullback hurdles a fool) than the Scarlet Knights had total receiving yards in the entire game.
This team is as frightening as: What if this – football, life, Earth – is all a simulation in some super-advanced Sim City program, and the player decides to quit the game? Tell me it isn’t possible; Rutger Football does have the general feel of a kid who got bored and decided to unleash a hurricane and an alien invasion and three dozen riots. Fear Level = 0.6
Michigan can sleep soundly about: Out of 130 FBS teams, Rutger are:
Michigan should worry about: Are bees still dying at an alarming rate?
- #130 in points per game (15.1)
- #128 in yards per play (4.17)
- #128 in yards per pass (4.5)
- #130 in passer rating (77.3)
- #130 in INTs (17) and INT rate (7.5%)
- #130 in turnover margin (-13, or -1.86 per game)
- #130 in plays of 20+ yards (14)
- #126 in average field position (25.7)
- #129 in Standard Down Success Rate (34.9%)
When they play Michigan: The FCC may have to step in.
Next week: vs. Northwestern, noon, BTN (Rutger +20.5)

Confirmation Babers refused to even interview for Rutgers job. I knew I liked him.
First paragraph reference to “dumpster fire”.
The job has to be all about the intangibles at this point. There has to be some hook outside of expected early (or even mid-term) success.I’ve said it before but my choice for the RU job is Al Golden.
Mine is Greg RobinsonI’ve said it before but my choice for the RU job is Al Golden.

I’ve been doing the same thing for two years. Fade Rutty for the remainder of the year, folks.
Interesting. Buffalo or Piscataway? One is an up and coming D1 program who's had it's share of success in the MAC, including right now but still a G5 job, or career death at Rutgers. Seriously, since Schiano has anyone's career survived going to Rutgers? I mean it almost killed Kill!The funny thing is, even if the fire Ash (I doubt they do and thank god we didn’t hire him) who the hell would they hire? All the coaching turnover the last few years had left nothing to chose from. UB’s coach or maybe James Madison’s are the only decent options.
