The Iowa Perspective on Rutgers Running Backs Coach Lester Erb

Now that national signing day is over, I wanted to examine in more detail the recent hiring of new running backs coach Lester Erb and the impact he could have with Rutgers football. He has a reputation as a strong recruiter and a good developer of talent, with his longest body of work coming in 13 years at Iowa. Erb brings a lot of experience with him and was even associate head coach at his last stop for Nevada. His resume is far more extensive than previous running backs coach Zak Kuhr and I think his hiring was another upgrade for head coach Chris Ash’s staff this offseason.
