Moore: Herm Edwards makes ASU football debut with modest attitude
(Photo: Patrick Breen/azcentral sports)Herm Edwards was low-key on the field during pregame warmups Saturday night. He shook hands. Chatted with his guys. Got a sip of water.
The most demonstrative thing he did was remove his dark cap and stride across the maroon and gold trident to greet and embrace Texas-San Antonio coach Frank Wilson.
He was calm. He was serious. He was comfortable.
It was just like he planned it.
“People are waiting, ‘How’s he gonna act on the sideline?’ ” he said early in the week before his first game as head coach at Arizona State. “You’re gonna get tired of looking at me. I’m gonna be very stoic. Look at the players, they’re playing.”
