Babbers people put out feelers to RU, but people at RU wanted someone with some P5 expirience and someone younger. He did not fit either. Remember... Ash was offered the job at Syracuse first, but Meyer convinced him to wait for the RU interview before deciding. If ash did not accept, there was still a chance that Babbers would have been contacted. There was probably just as much of a chance that RU hired Narduzzi since he was making back channel contacts with RU though intermediaries also. He had both things that RU wanted, but RU would have had to probably pay him much more than Ash.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]This kind of reminds me of the Addazzio situation when he said that he was turning down the RU job offer and staying at Temple after Flood was given the job. It was true that Addazzio was offered the job, but it was on the condition of keeping many of the assistant coaches. Pernetti wanted to maintain RU's best ever recruiting class. Addazzio insisted on bring in all of his own guys and RU said no thank you. Addazio had so save face and salavage his rep at Temople by claiming that he turned down RU to stay at Temple.[/INDENT] followed up by: [URL]https://rutgers.forums./data/rutgers/data/avatars/m/0/410.jpg?1429649213[/URL] [SIZE=5][B]hiwater[/B][/SIZE] Joined:Aug 1, 2001 Messages:7,970 Likes Received:1,209 [INDENT]TenaflyOrange said: ↑[/INDENT] [INDENT]How do you know this?[/INDENT] [INDENT]WHich part. The prior owner of this site on the premium side shared much of this during and after the coach search process on the premium side. Other people close to the program did as well. The part about Ash being offer at Syracuse before Babbers and why he wait for the RU interview is has been published in multiple articles based on quotes from Meyer himself.[/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
