Weiss Carroll NFL speculation

Carroll is a huge topic out here right now. I don't think he'll leave USC, especially for the Cards. However, the talk is true.

I think the NY Giants is the only team Weiss would leave ND to go to the NFL for.

Its all about timing. Can't see him leaving though so soon. He has at least two other appearances on 60 Minutes before he can take another job.

Aside from money Pete would be crazy to leave with the team hes got for the next 4 years

We are making contact with both.

I am sure by now, they can find a form letter on the internet that indicates their non-interest in taking the Bammer job, download it and have it faxed to you by the end of the day.

You can also fill one out at Kinko's/Fed-Ex now. Right next to those self-help books.

The fact that Lienhart is with Arizona might help the chances of landing Carroll but I don't think he'll leave. Rumor here in Indiana is that Weiss will only leave if a unlimited buffett bar is included in the new contract.

I heard Weiss wants to stay at ND until his son graduates from there. Apparently his son is 14 or so.

If Weis left than we could stop hearing about what a genius he is even though his team gets pounded by the only decent competition they face.

He should take an NFL job! Things at ND will get worse before they get better!

Just two years, but Wiess has not yet beaten a top ten team has he?
no he hasn't...but he's beaten up on Army/navy and air force and UNC and purdue etc, etc...and up until very recently fooled the entire collegefootball landscape that they were a legit contender.

i think a lot of people now feel a bit foolish for their predictions about ND contending for a NT this year and ranking them so high in pre season...

well, except for Lou Holtz that is...:crazy:

IMO the whole Carroll back to the NFL talk is blown way out of proportion...

1. It was started by some off-the-cuff comment Matt Leinart made. A reporter hinted at the fact that Denny Green would not be around Glendale much longer, and asked Leinart if he wouldn't mind Carroll coaching. Of course, he said that'd be great.

2. Pete Carroll has already done the NFL thing. Many college coaches are 'on the way up' using their college gig as a springboard to try and cut it in the pros. Nick Saban recently did this. Spurrier tried it. There's still a decent chance Weis will make it up there. I'm sure Cutcliffe wants in the NFL sometime. Carroll's already done all that. He's a guy who's been around the block, and knows he can't cut it in the NFL. It's not tougher there, it's just different.

3. WHY would Carroll leave what he's got at USC? Two national championships, played for three in a row, fifth straight Pac-10 title and major bowl game to go with it, and this year his team controlled its own destiny in the national title race after losing two Heisman winners and start fifteen freshmen. Honestly, he is far and away the best in the college game today. No question about it.

What would compell him to leave?
