Rutgers coach Chris Ash has another job on his staff to fill.

Cornerbacks coach Henry Baker, a Paterson native, is expected to become defensive backs coach at North Carolina, a source confirmed to NJ Advance Media. ESPN first reported Baker's departure.

Baker's exit continues what has been an offseason of change for the Scarlet Knights. Baker would be the fifth assistant to leave Ash's staff since the end of last season, and the eighth in the coach's two-plus years at Rutgers.

The other moves so far this offseason:

* Offensive coordinator Jerry Kill retired for health reasons and was replaced by John McNulty

* Shane Burnham relinquished his defensive line post to join the new staff at UCF. He was replaced by former Miami of Ohio defensive line coach Corey Brown.

* Wide receivers coach Jafar Williams resigned to join Big Ten rival Maryland, his alma mater. He was replaced by Bergen Catholic coach Nunzio Campanile.

* Co-defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach Bill Busch left last week to accept a job on the LSU staff. Ash has yet to name his replacement.

Baker, who played at Paterson Eastside and Maryland, came to Rutgers last season after six years on the staff at Delaware. He recruited South Jersey and the Maryland-Virginia/Washington area for Rutgers, as well as southern Florida.

In his first offseason, Ash saw offensive coordinator Drew Mehringer leave for Texas, running backs coach Zak Kuhr depart for Texas State, which is Rutgers' season-opening opponent this year, and assistant defensive backs coach Aaron Henry leave for N.C. State.
