Background: William Miller Edwards (June 21, 1905 - June 12, 1987) was an American football player and coach. He served as the head football coach at Western Reserve University, Vanderbilt University and Wittenberg University in a career lasting more than 30 years, compiling a win-loss-tie record of 168-45-8. Edwards also coached the Detroit Lions of the National Football League (NFL) from 1941 to 1942, tallying a 4-9-1 record, and served as an assistant coach for the NFL's Cleveland Browns in the late 1940s. Raised near Massillon, Ohio, Edwards was the son of an immigrant from Wales who worked in the area's coal mines.
Context: Having built a strong record at Western Reserve, Edwards was in the running for head coaching roles at a number of larger universities and professional teams. He met with officials at Marquette University and was considered a candidate for coaching duties at Colorado University and for the National Football League's Detroit Lions. After visiting with Lions owner Fred Mandel, Edwards ultimately was hired in February 1941 to succeed George Clark. Both Edwards and Dugan Miller signed two-year contracts. Edwards was given a $10,000 annual salary ($166,380 in 2017 dollars), more than double the $4,420 he was paid at Western Reserve.  Edwards's stint as the Lions coach was unsuccessful. He guided the team to a 4-6-1 record in 1941, and Mandel fired him after three straight losses to begin the 1942 season as the team's roster was depleted by players' service in World War II. Detroit went on to lose all the rest of its games after John Karcis was named his replacement.  Edwards enlisted in the U.S. Navy later in 1942 as America's involvement in the war intensified. While in the military, he served at St. Mary's Pre-Flight, a training program in California, and coached the Air Devils football team there. He also served at a base in Pensacola, Florida. Edwards was discharged in 1946, and spent a year in the sporting goods business in Cleveland, Ohio before reuniting with Brown, who had become the first coach of the Cleveland Browns in the All-America Football Conference (AAFC). Edwards took a position as a tackle coach and remained with the team for two seasons. He coached tackles including Ernie Blandin, Lou Rymkus and future Pro Football Hall of Fame member Lou Groza. The Browns won the AAFC championship in both of Edwards's years as an assistant; the team won all of its games in 1948, turning in professional football's first perfect season. CANNOTANSWER

Bakgrund: William Miller Edwards (21 juni 1905 - 12 juni 1987) var en amerikansk fotbollsspelare och tränare. Han tjänstgjorde som huvudtränare i fotboll vid Western Reserve University, Vanderbilt University och Wittenberg University i en karriär som varade i mer än 30 år, och sammanställde ett win-loss-tie-rekord på 168-45-8. Edwards var även tränare för Detroit Lions of the National Football League (NFL) från 1941 till 1942, och räknade ett 4-9-1-rekord, och tjänstgjorde som assisterande tränare för NFL:s Cleveland Browns i slutet av 1940-talet. Uppvuxen i närheten av Massillon i Ohio var Edwards son till en invandrare från Wales som arbetade i områdets kolgruvor. Sammanhang: Efter att ha byggt upp ett starkt rekord på Western Reserve, var Edwards med i löpningen för head coachingroller på ett antal större universitet och professionella team. Han träffade tjänstemän vid Marquette University och ansågs vara kandidat för coachningsuppgifter vid Colorado University och för National Football Leagues Detroit Lions. Efter att ha besökt Lions ägare Fred Mandel anställdes Edwards slutligen i februari 1941 för att efterträda George Clark. Både Edwards och Dugan Miller skrev på tvåårskontrakt. Edwards fick en årslön på 10 000 dollar (16380 dollar 2017), mer än dubbelt så mycket som de 4 420 dollar han fick i Western Reserve. Edwards stint som Lions tränare blev utan framgång. Han vägledde laget till ett 4-6-1 rekord 1941, och Mandel sparkade honom efter tre raka förluster för att börja säsongen 1942 då lagets roster tömdes på av spelarnas tjänst i andra världskriget. Detroit gick vidare till att förlora alla resten av sina matcher efter att John Karcis döpts till sin ersättare. Edwards tog värvning i USA:s flotta senare under 1942 då USA:s inblandning i kriget intensifierades. Under tiden i militären tjänstgjorde han vid St Mary's Pre-Flight, ett träningsprogram i Kalifornien, och coachade fotbollslaget Air Devils där. Han tjänstgjorde även vid en bas i Pensacola i Florida. Edwards fick avsked 1946, och tillbringade ett år i sportvarubranschen i Cleveland, Ohio innan han återförenades med Brown, som hade blivit Cleveland Browns första tränare i All-America Football Conference (AAFC). Edwards tog en position som tacklingstränare och blev kvar hos laget i två säsonger. Han coachade tacklingar bland annat Ernie Blandin, Lou Rymkus och blivande Pro Football Hall of Fame-medlemmen Lou Groza. Browns vann AAFC-mästerskapet i båda Edwards år som assistent; laget vann alla sina matcher 1948, och vände in professionell fotboll första perfekta säsongen.
