He knows what he is doing, but who are these assistants? Seems like a bunch of no names, can't compete in the B1G with that.

When do you blame the players for absolutely being terrible?

Coaches did not overthrow TDs to Patton, muff a punt, fumble the ball, or throw the INT. They have little to work with, especially at QB. Losing Grant has been huge.

Towards the end of the game Coach Ash was being heckled by fans in the expensive seats. A young kid (15ish) ripped into Ash as he was leaving the stadium. Things are starting to spiral out of control.

Guess it was the players fault and not floods when he was coach also ?
no doubt about that...but it was him who cause the lapse in talent being brought in. This cluster F is all on him. If Ash can't get 2 or 3 solid recruiting classes in the next few years. we're officially set back to pre schiano era.

He might be an opposing coaches coach. They absolutely love him.

I bet some of our opponents with be making large anonymous donations to keep our coaching staff in place for a long long time.
He definitely is making nittany nation feel a lot better about Franklin

Yeah - I'm sure Ash is coaching his players to turn it over 5+ times in a game. Guys coughing up the ball on our end of the field...that is on the player. You also to have give the Ilini credit - they forced a few of those turnovers. Turnovers were the story of this game. We moved the ball when Rescigno came in - give credit to the coaches for putting him into the game in the second half.

You're wrong, there's talent on this team it just needs to be developed. That is on Ash.

Yes, the OP is right. But don't try to convict people like Are You Nuts or bac. Both supported the ash hire and both predicted a winning season for ru in 2013 . Facts

Multiple fouls every game on formations- THAT IS COACHING

Multiple missed tackles and guys out of place- THAT IS COACHING

Ball security a weekly problem - THAT IS COACHING

Shall I go on?

what's sad is that we're stuck with Ash for at least two more years. Just to think in 12/13 we had a shot at Petrino, and last year Rhule/Golden. This hire is on the University and Trenton.

Carroo is in the NFL.
Grant is out.

Our best offensive weapons are our RBs and they have to run into stacked boxes full of more talented players.

If you give DM Carroo and Grant, I'm confident we wouldn't lose today or vs Iowa.

Don't think this has been said yet about the complaints concerning RU's HC/OC/DC/STC and every position coach and GAs ( Strength Coach looks like he has 100% support so leaving him out) making it look like under them this is the only thing that can be said :

Schiano was not a people person. Could care less about the O. Was not a great head coach but was and is a superb D coordinator. In spite of this he got it done and probably could have continued moving this train forward if he had stayed. .When he left 11 years went down the rat hole. IMHO
