Would Al Golden have met with the media by now? It's going to be awkward when Ash finally does make an appearance. Players had to face the media after both losses (Bowen may have done so voluntarily after A&M). Other coaches faced that fire as well. They had to answer the tough questions. They also showed up after blowout wins. That comes with the territory. It's fair game.
It is not a good look that Ash has not been held to the same standard. It somewhat tarnishes what Freeman preaches regarding team glory. Ash's absence doesn't encompass "team". I'm unsure if you can accomplish team glory or reach your full potential by sitting out during the tough times.
Anyone see Chris Ash?
