The last time Herm Edwards coached at the D1A CFB level in any capacity... was the year after John Cooper was introduced as Ohio State's head coach.

That would be 1988 for those keeping score at home

*ichigans most recent NC was only 40 years old at that point. A mere blink of an eye in their world.

Arizona State hired Herm Edwards, so.........yeah.

Arizona State names Herm Edwards coach, announces new NFL approach to program

Edwards is being tasked with implementing an NFL-esque program at Arizona State


ASU’s current athletic director, Ray Anderson, served as Edwards’ agent during a coaching career that seemingly ended nearly a decade ago.

Arizona State announced Sunday night it is taking a new "NFL approach" to building a college football program by both naming Herm Edwards its new coach and sharing its plans for a "general manager structure" within the Sun Devils program.

The department's New Leadership Model will be similar to an NFL approach using a general manager structure. It's a collaborative approach to managing the ASU football program that includes sport and administrative divisions, which will operate as distinct, but collective units focused on elevating all aspects of Sun Devil Football. This structure will allow the department to form a multi-layered method to the talent evaluation and recruiting processes, increase its emphasis on both student-athlete and coach development and retention, and provide a boost in resource allocation and generation.

“Our goal for this football program is to reach unprecedented heights, and therefore we need to find a way to operate more innovatively and efficiently than we have in the past,” Anderson said. “In the spirit of innovation, our vision for this program is to have a head coach who serves as a CEO and is the central leader with a collaborative staff around him that will elevate the performance of players and coaches on the field, in the classroom and in our community. Equally important, the head coach will be a dynamic and tireless recruiter.
