Chris Ash says Rutgers' recruiting camp wasn't retaliation against Michigan

MADISON — There was no need for Rutgers coach Chris Ash to make any inflammatory comments about Michigan or coach Jim Harbaugh on Wednesday. Ash had already made his statement by scheduling a recruiting camp on the same date at the same time as Michigan's camp in New Jersey.

While 1,000 high school players spread out over three fields at Farleigh Dickinson's Madison campus on Wednesday evening, Ash downplayed any bad blood with Harbaugh, who was the headliner at a satellite camp 30 miles away at Paramus Catholic High.

"I commend Coach Harbaugh for what he's doing," Ash said.
