Chris Ash did plenty of good things while he was Ohio State's defensive coordinator from 2014-15.

He introduced the Buckeyes' new style of rugby tackling and revamped a hapless Ohio State secondary into a championship-caliber pass defense, as OSU went on to win the 2014 national title.

Ash is still trying to rebuild a Rutgers program that is dealing with NCAA sanctions from the previous regime. While the first 16 games of Ash's head coaching career haven't quite gone the way he planned (3-13 record), the former Ohio State assistant has some pieces in place that can make an impact.
