Chris Mortensen (sp?), the NFL guru, was on local sports talk here this morning in Altanta and stated Carroll wants to come back to the NFL..and there might be a bidding war between the Falcons and Redskins for Carroll, but Carroll wants a lot of control over player personal.

My guess is that both teams would give him huge control...after all, Gibbs had huge control (forget all the titles he carried besides head coach)...and Atlanta? They would give him the Moon and the Stars to get him in the door and give the ticket buyers any inkling of hope and keep them as paying customers!

1) I do not think the Poddle is going anywhere!!!

2) Even if he does go....with the talent at USC right now it would take a real bonehead hire for them to not keep the momentum going! Look how little effect Norm Chows exit had on the program! I think this years class might drop off but with a high profile hire next year they would be right back up there. There is a lot of talent in California and it is hard to compete with that climate and surroundings period!!!

Miami and Cooker... Florida and Zook... Notre Dame and Davie...

when a team has that kind of mo. and changes coaches they usually falter

Wow, would love 2 see Petey go. He is a relentless recruiter and a players coach. There is not a coach out there imo that USC could bring in 2 replace him. Climate or no climate, with Neuhiesel sp? now at UCLA there could definetly be a change of the tides in LA.

What a great way to close out the recruiting year
- 22 new studs (maybe a couple more)
- Stealing Crist right out from under petey and the trojan myopic fans
- seeing usc lose their pro coach- the players won't know where to go to pick up their paychecks

Man I love this off season- sure beats the regular 07 season

Also, the DC of Tampa (Monte Kiffin) is Carroll's best friend and his contract is up..he does have an extension offer from Tampa Bay, but I have heard he would coach with Pete only in the Pros.

Poodle leaving would be great for ND. They would have a chance to get someone in there and still be good, but he is the KEY in why they have been so successful. He leaves and they will definitely not be the same. I HATE USC, and some of that has rubbed off on Poodle Pete, but as a former college football player I bet he is awesome to play for, it would be great for the whole country if he went to the NFL.

......and no we would not want Brice Butler, we have Floyd, Goodman and Walker. Besides "Its too cold" in South Bend for Brice.

i just heard from a reliable inside source that spoke to pete carroll last night, that he is NOT interested in the leaving for the NFL. All these rumors of him leaving are false.

Redskins are my boys. I think Poodle runs a loose ship at SC, which ain't gonna work in the pros. He should stay put, but for ND's sake, I hope he goes.

Sorry, just got home from work. John, welcome back and all, but look 2 posts up from this. The link was already posted.

The cost will be 10 million dollars. If you choose not to pay the 10 million dollars, I will unleash my sharks with laser beams. If I do not kill you with the sharks with laser beams, I will release my next great weapon...Preparation H.

Yes...that's what I will do. To me, you deserve Preparation H. Preparation H feels good...on the whole.

I pray he leaves SC. I just want an NFL team I can hate more.

Nah...let's beat the living piss out of SC before he goes anywhere. We don't need that winning streak hanging over our heads before he goes trotting off to the NFL.

I got an idea let's start a rumor on a Florida board that CW will take the Redskins job. Urban will try to out do him and weasel his way into the position and out of college football.

I'd rather have the pretty boy stay and have Steve Sarkisian leave for a head coaching position. The "defensive minded" Carroll who gave up 24 points to stanford. Was booty supposed to play linebacker that week too?

If Carroll leaves, Sarkisian steps into the head coaching position and not much changes, if USC is smart and I'm right.

Also, I doubt Petey Boy has no interest in the NFL; any real coach would have a desire to rectify a career that was so sour, which is why he wants full control. I think he leaves.

Carroll is a tool... he tells everyone what they want to hear... some are saying he is interested some say he is not. It all comes down to him loving to have his ego stoked... I am not sure where he will end up but I do believe he will try to keep his name being mentioned until they eventually figure out he is toying with them
