word down here in miami is that pete carroll was interviewed by wayne huizenga in costa rica today....

Man that would be great for us! get the poodle out of our face.

 

But i have a feeling he is going nowhere.

Wayne has a big big big big pocketbook. If we know anything around here...Money talks.

THERE IS NO WAY That HAPPENS. I wish it was true but no way.

If he wasn't at all interested he wouldn't have cut time out of his vacation in Costa Rica to talk no?

thanks for the link scooper

just another feather in Carrol's hat. Gets to turn down the Dolphins and like 4 billion dollars and show he's 100% committed to USC blah blah blah.... what a guy.

you're probably right....all in the meantime using the dolphins to get a raise from USC.

The Miami job is not such a bad gig! First, it is warm weather and with enough money anything be made extremely attractive. Maybe this time the owner will tell Carroll he could succeed now because he could have greater control over player personnel choices, coaches, etc.... Yeah, that's the ticket why Carroll didn't do well before. Yeah, how much again, warm weather and full control of the team on and off the field, he just might do it.

I don't think it'll ever happen. Ever.

 

But, honestly, I'd love to get the opportunity at a few of their commits who would reopen because Carroll left.

This would be a wet dream come true, Poodle leave for the NFL and ND hire Norton as their new DC

 

I think you would see some usc committs jump ship and decommitt, but I agree with the others that have said that this isn't going to happen.

 

Trojans would cough up more cash, saban like cash to keep his f'n ass at usc.

WH would have to through out Mike Holmgren money to even make Carroll think about it. We're talking $7-9 mil a year money. Every man has his price and WH is one of the better owners in the league and really likes winning, so who knows.

i would LOVE for Carroll to go to the NFL, but im not sure it would have a drastic effect on USC recruiting. they are still going to be a great team for the next few years ..unless if Carroll was to leave there would be a crazy amount of kids wanting to transfer, and i dont see that happening

Hey guys. Its me rdrdreamer...I have been stating this exact scenario would materialize for the past couple of months. Regardless of the eventual NCAA sanctions that will one day come...his ego is such here in SoCal that he has to go back to the NFL in an attempt to restore any credibility there among his former peers. This may seem far-fetched and a 'reach' by most people...but I don't. I have heard rumblings from this area for sometime about James Wilson concerned about the affairs of USC for awhile now.

 

Someone will step in and keep this circus going. If this Poodle interview is true, which hasn't been confirmed by ESPN yet, then don't think Jeff Fisher (my old Toreador team mate) won't be ready to jump at this opportunity?

Guys, this is a definite possibility. I'm not willing to say it will happen but it is very possible. More than anything it is something that would feed Petey's ego. The NFL is considered the top and Pete failed when he was there. He would want to show others that he can also be successful in the NFL.
