Adam Schefter just said Carroll to Seahawks basically a done deal.

Get this: Mortenson and Schefter also said USC could pursue former Trojan Jeff Fisher or Jack Del Rio.

Either one would be a good hire though. I also think Del Rio would more readily take that job since he's under so much pressure at Jacksonville. Now is a good time for him to get out.

Until Seattle interviews a minority. That's @!@#%@* ridiculous. How must it feel to be that minority? "Hey, come interview for this job. It's already filled, but we'll throw in a free meal to make it worth your time."

that has to be the absolute worst part of the college game when compared to the pros. Go out and kiss the asses of 50-60 18-year-old players every year. Not to mention Mama and Diddy, and taking care of any other relatives/coaches/adopted guardians that need jobs, cars, or houses.

If it weren't for the multi-million dollar salaries, there's NO WAY you'd get me to do it...

have to start telling a recruit they can wear a certain number or that their school colors are awesome or that they are unveiling new uniforms next year or or that their indoor facility is awesomer b/c it has 25 playstations as opposed to its rivals that only has 10 or that the reason the recruit hasn't heard from them in a while is b/c the NCAA rules wouldn't allow contact.

That sounds like its righ tup their alley.

More often that not you hear about the reverse situation not working out, but Jeff isn't the enigmatic guy that Carrol is. He's the polar opposite.

He was ready for a meeting with the LSU brass and they stiffed him. His wife is from Baton Rouge and his daughter was a student there at the time. He would be smart to let USC know he wants the job.
