Herm Edwards Trends on Twitter Following Jayden Daniels Transfer

Often times, head coaches will receive blame for everything that happens on a football field, with Arizona State Sun Devils head coach Herm Edwards no exception.
Can't run the ball? Blame Edwards. Can't stop the pass? Blame Edwards. Even if the kicker comes out of the locker room with two left-footed cleats, Edwards would still be labeled as the scapegoat.
That's the role he plays, and he understands that.
So when Arizona State quarterback Jayden Daniels entered the transfer portal on Thursday, it wasn't surprising to see the reactions.
That's not to say Edwards doesn't own some blame for Daniels departing the program, especially if reports are true of Edwards holding a meeting with Daniels while the program had interest from quarterback Spencer Rattler, only to stick with Daniels.
That's another story for another day, but the Twitter story Thursday was a lot about Edwards after another blow to ASU's football program.
Honestly if I’m ASU, I fire Herm Edwards today and move on

I’m not surprised Jayden Daniels has decided to leave ASU. The most painful thing is just that Ray Anderson and Herm Edwards remain employed by ASU. The football program is trapped in purgatory until that changes.

Arizona State really went from Todd Graham to Herm Edwards. 😬 pic.twitter.com/dDfDpV9MPJ

I'm sure @HermEdwards is currently writing some very heartfelt letters to the remaining players that he will have delivered via Pony Express sometime before June.

You won't find anybody left arguing ASU shouldn't have fired Todd Graham but I'd say the collective "huh?" that greeted Herm Edwards has been pretty well vindicated.

From one prominent booster of ASU football to me “Tell Herm to enter the portal”

ASU definitely should keep Herm Edwards and Ray Anderson. Both seem to be doing a fantastic job over there.

The Herm Edwards era at ASU will be a fascinating 30 for 30. https://t.co/BnNtYdMsO8

Ray Anderson and Herm Edwards still have jobs and are among the highest paid state employees. They’re literally stealing from the state of AZ while making ASU the laughing stock of college football.
