HC Ash's presser from an Ohio State perspective

Getting thrown in the East Division and going 4-12 in your first 16 conference games with an overmatched coach and overmatched athletic director doesn't make you a Big Ten team.

Monday, Rutgers looked more like a Big Ten program than it ever has.
 
Ash performed well in his introductory news conference, while newly hired athletic director Patrick Hobbs had his first real introduction as well. Both seemed prepared and competent, which should be a starting point for jobs like that but is a huge step up from what Rutgers had in Kyle Flood and Julie Hermann.
