AU Grid Staff Adds Homa, Washington
August 15, 2005



Ashland University head football coach Lee Owens recently rounded out his coaching staff with the addition of two assistant coaches ? Randy Homa and James ?Butchie? Washington.

Homa is a 2000 graduate of The Ohio State University. He will work with the defensive line. Homa comes to AU from Bridgton Academy (CT) where he was the defensive coordinator, special teams coordinator and linebackers coach.

In 2001, Homa was an assistant coach at Edinboro, working with the linebackers. His background also includes stints as the linebackers coach at Assumption College in 2000 and as student coach at Ohio State in 1999. With the Buckeyes, Homa worked with the linebackers.

Homa played for the Buckeyes and earned two letters as a defensive tackle. He played on two teams that claimed Big 10 championships. Those units went on to win the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl.

Washington knows the Owens system well ? he thrived in it as a record-setting quarterback at the University of Akron. Now he?s reunited with Owens. Washington will serve as the quarterbacks coach.

The new Ashland assistant coach spent the past year as the wide receivers coach at Muskingum College. Prior to that, he taught in the Columbus (OH) Public School system.

Washington?s playing career extended beyond the college level. After leaving Akron, he spent a year with the CFL?s Hamilton Tiger Cats.

Washington is a 2002 Akron graduate.

Ashland opens the 2005 season on Aug. 27 at Saint Joseph?s (IN). A year ago in Ashland, the Eagles downed the Pumas, 48-7.
 
Butchie Washington came from my HS. Was a record setting QB at Akron.

I thought he was already a coach at Ashland. I guess not. He was at our games for the past two years recruiting for Ashland.

Something I can't figure out there.

EDIT: After further research..........he was at Ashland last year. I checked the Ashland football site, it says he was at Ashland last year, and "helped the Ashland QB refine his game". Saying before that year, he was at Muskingum. This article says he was at Muskingum last year. Which is not correct.
