Rutgers football hosted Media Day yesterday and Chris Ash held his first formal presser of the camp season. Before I get into this, take some time to watch the complete press conference below.
Players not with the team
- Ronnie James had surgery and should be back around September
- Malachi Moore is no longer with the team due a pre-existing medical condition
- Ahmed Bah is not yet with the team due to a citizenship paperwork issue
Ash’s impressions of the team
- He is proud of the way they have worked through seven difficult practices and some cases of extreme heat
- He is glad there have been no distractions so far
- They have adjusted well to the new format
- He likes where the team is mentally and physically
- They are still a long way from being the players he wants them to be
Quarterbacks
Ash has said what we expected, Laviano and Allen lead the competition but the other guys are doing well.
