Mora out in Seattle, Pete Carroll in

That's what the guys on ESPN just reported.. don't know how long they'd been talking about it, I was taking a nap. It was reported that they had mutual interest in each other and that Seattle wanted to bring in Carrol as well as Bates I believe

Oh. I'm watching Golden Girls (what?)...didn't realize that

Carrol is reportedly trying to talk Bates into joining him.

Shouldn't have been hired as Head Coach in the first place. It's not surprising they fired he because it was going to happen sooner or later. It is surprising that they had the guts to fire him after one year.

Wonder what the Bears will do if that happens. I thought they really wanted him

On a side note...anyone think Nick Saban will have his players practicing how to dump Gatorade next season?

It's not a sure thing but apparently Carroll is interested enough to try to get Bates to go with him.

Why would Pete Carroll leave USC to come back to the grind of the NFL? Just doesn't make sense to me.

Coaches have pride and egos.. this is why you'll see a coach leave a successful program and then come back with a project team

He's been wanting to try to prove himself at the NFL again

What else does Carrol have to prove in college? Might as well take the big payday and try to prove himself on the next level. If the Seahawks are able to bring in Carrol then canning Mora was a no-brainer.
