Don't do it Pete!

I think Jim Mora must be the most firedest NFL coach I’ve ever seen.

Highly doubt Carroll will go for it...he's such a good fit at the college level...besides I'm a HUGE Trojans fan.
This is what, the third or fourth year in a row that Carroll has been rumored to be lured to the NFL?

The Seahawks are officially adrift. Mora may or may not have been the answer, but you can’t blow a team up every year and still play good football.

That would probably be Marty Schottenheimer.
Jim Mora, Jr. has only been fired from two head coaching gigs, the Falcons in 2006 and now the Seahawks.

(Washington)Husky fans would be delighted! Not only would the Seahawks have a half-decent coach, but maybe someone ELSE would be a Pac-10 leader BESIDES U-damn-S-f’n-C.

Oh oh, that is my mistake...I was thinking Jim Mora Sr., former coach of the New Orleans Saints. I thought that he was somehow still making the rounds. X_X

I can think of nine universities in the Pac10 that are hoping that Pete Carroll will go back to the NFL.
To: NorCoGOP
Multiple NFL sources have said Carroll is gonna take the job. According to ESPN radio, FWIW.

Carroll is not a good fit for the NFL, IMO.
We had him up in NE for 3 years. And while he had an okay record, the players didn’t buy into his rah-rah brand of motivation.
He is made for college, and is a superstar at SC.

It will never work. For one thing Carroll never had a salary cap at USC

I figured, yes.
Jim “Playoffs?” Mora, Sr. is an analyst on NFL Network. Jim Mora, Jr. is the guy who just got canned.

When the NCAA didn’t accept USC’s self imposed football sanctions (unlike their basketball sanctions) I think it sent a message to Carroll that it was time to rethink his career options.

As much as I love the Buckeyes and the Big Ten my other favorite team is Carroll’s Trojans. I hope Carroll stays right where he is.

It’s been a long time since I saw Mora Sr.’s playoff rant...
Oh well, at least it is good to know that his son is carrying on his dad’s losing ways.

The word around Los Angeles is that it is a done deal.
