UCLA Football Opponent Deep Cut: Arizona State
The Deep Cut is a companion piece to the Opponent Preview, in which I take a closer look at something related to the opponent, with a humorous slant.
The Arizona State Sun Devils fired Todd Graham at the end of last season, despite the fact that he orchestrated one of the best stretches of good football the program has ever seen, and hired Herm Edwards to replace him, despite the facts that he hadn’t coached in a decade and had a under .500 record as an NFL coach. It’s still the most baffling move of this last coaching carousel, but at least it led to one thing: fantastic, bizarre quotes from Herm Edwards.
