Jim Mora Jr. fired by the Seahawks. E!spn is reporting Carroll is Seattle's top target and there's said to be "strong mutual interest" and it would be a "surprise" if he doesn't end up in Seattle. It's e!spn, so obviously TIFWIW. Could be interesting...

RUMOR: Pete Carroll to the NFL?

Starting to hear it...even on ESPN....that Pete is headed to Seattle. Sounds like it is almost a done deal?

ESPN now claims Pete is working his offensive coordinator (J. Bates) to go with him...Mortensen said it would a shock if Seattle didn't bring Carroll in..mutual interest all the way around. Morty also says it should all be wrapped up and announced early next week....

I don't think Prater was ever even offered. Not sure the staff has interest so long as Louis' commit remains solid.

wouldn't Prater need an offer before putting on the "full court press"?

True...I got ahead of myself there...just blown away by the rumor that Pete is moving on. ESPN is talking like it is all but a certainty that Pete is headed to Seattle.

The NCAA is perhaps closing in.....and now if Pete leaves ...this can't hurt our recruiting.....

I agree

Pete must see the writing on the wall. Heavy sanctions may be on the horizon for USC football.
