Pete Carroll to the Seahawks? (merged)

[RhodeIslandVol]

Pete Carroll was a joke at New England. I'm sure he'll be a joke in Seattle.

 

[BearCat204]

If CPC leaves, it will be a pretty bad choice for him imo. He has tried the pro route before and got his **** kicked in the dirt. He has a empire built at USC and would be strange for his to leave it unless there are more underlying problems at USC with the NCAA than are on the surface at this point.

 

[GahLee]

Kiffin to USC

Bingo!!!!!........not really.

 

[CountVolcula]

Very interesting.

My guess is vol fans want him to be asked but turn down the offer.

I figured I would say it first before the gazillion threads listed next:

O to USC?
CLK to USC?
CLK to Seattle?
O to Mars?
etc
etc
etc

 

[TennesseePride]

Hasn't Carroll been offered numerous times by NFL caller's and constantly turns them down?

 

[KingsportVol88]

3 Carroll to Seahawk threads already

 

[utVOLman]

being reported as "mutual interest" and Mort says he would be surprised if they don't get Carrol...

remember, Paul Allen has some deep pockets...

I would guess that USC would go after Sark if this happens...

 

[droski]

only way he takes it is if he thinks the ncaa hammer is coming down.

their first calls will be to jeff fisher and del rio. then probably riley at OSU, sarquisien, and kiffin/harbaugh. garrett was apparently no big fan of kiffin though.

 

[utvolpj]

I would guess that USC would go after Sark if this happens...

my first thought as well (but I doubt he leaves after 1 year)

 

[lylsmorr]

Let me be the first to say...congratulations

Get that man a cookie

 

[BeecherVol]

Does Kiffin or Orgeron have a clause in their contract that they can leave for USC?

Good question.

The situation in Seattle is perfect for Petey, he'd probably be a GM/HC and have a lot of control.

 

[Rockytopman]

If they Seahawks take Pete, then we almost positively lose CEO.

Why do you think that? He already turned them down before to be on Carroll's staff, and I seriously doubt that they will want him as head coach....could happen, but not likely.

 

[droski]

I was the first to report this, and maybe he is going because that might have something to do with Joe Mcknight entering the draft.

mcknight going pro is addition by subtraction.

 

[GahLee]

i highly doubt orgeron becomes a head coach anytime soon after his tenure at ole miss. and kiffin won't be going anywhere either.

don't worry about it.

Coach O wouldn't get the head coaching gig at USC, but he they may offer him DC/Recruiting coordinator...Lane on the other hand would probably jump at the offer to be HC at USC, but they wouldn't offer him I believe.

 

[jspvol76]

Possibly Saban to USC...they have money.

I would LMAO if this happened.

 

[nikesportsfan]

They also asked to interview Leslie Frazier

He turned down the request to be interviewed I heard

 

[Panthro]

I knew they must have had someone in-mind to fire Mora so fast...but geesh! What is Carrol thinking?

 

[GahLee]

Good question.

No way...

 

[bignewt]

"Hey Lane, its Pete. What do you think about me coaching in Seattle?"

"Pete, I wouldn't coach the seahawks with your visor."

 

[Panthro]

He turned down the request to be interviewed I heard

That's because he knows he's not getting any of these jobs, he's just being interviewed to fill the minority quota. Please, nobody take that the wrong way. I'm just saying Frasier's gotta be getting exhausted flying all over the place for jobs he knows he won't get.
I'd like to see him replace John Fox eventually, though.

 

[nikesportsfan]

Fulmer to USC!!

I heard that the Bills were seriously considering him for the job, but then the next day Brian Billick was rumored to be assembling a staff for the job..

 

[CountVolcula]

Let the resurrection of the Fulmerites begin

true. i still don't see either of them leaving though......especially kiffin because i just don't see it happening at all since they probably wouldn't contact him in the first place. orgeron could, but my gut says he stays.
