You have nothing to worry about. He's good at coaching students (if you can call them that), not professionals. On top of that I imagine his setup at USC is too cushy.Anonymous

I think he gets $2m and change plus incentives. There are coaches who get more. And the people he coaches...they are called "student athletes" : )Anonymous

Yeah, it's the one more shot at the NFL thing. I believe him when he says that he isn't leaving but then why the meeting with the Dolphins? It just scared me. Maybe he told them that he's not leaving but theyh are welcome to try to get him. I'm no Pete Carroll, but that is kind of the attitude I have too. I am happy where I am and love my job but if someone wants to try to offer me something better, give it a shot. Hopefully that's what my Pete is doing too.Anonymous

Well it looks like you can breath again... But I'd doubt that Pete Carroll could come up with with a good reason to leave SC and So Cal. He's got a great team (awfully tough for a UC Berkeley alum to admit), plenty of alumni and school support, no whacky owner to deal with, a nice stadium to play in (albeit the location is kind of a drag) and lives in a great area. There's a down-side here? What's really refreshing is that he does not seem to be swayed by "hey we'll pay you more..." I wish more people were like that.Anonymous

Jim S - cheeky as usual : ) I hope they pay him more. I'm sure there's some incentive pay. As an alumni, I'd contribute to a pay raise! Steve G - yeah, it was just that he let them fly down there (Costa Rica, I think I recall) to talk to him. I wish he would have said "don't bother". Anyway, hands off NFL teams! I thought your Bears were going to give us a run for the money this year. Did you see my post about Lee Corso? I wouldn't have argued with him until after we played Cal. All in all, a good season for you guys.Anonymous

My grammar and word flow suffer when I get worked up. Sigh.
