Pete Carroll met with the Washington Redskins about a job on Monday, but he’d rather not talk about it.
USC Coach Pete Carroll on Monday declined to address reports that he met with Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder about becoming the NFL team’s coach.
The NFL Network and the Associated Press said that Carroll met with Snyder in St. Louis following Joe Gibbs’ resignation but that it had been mutually decided he would not be a candidate.
Carroll has been mentioned as a candidate for NFL openings after each of the last six seasons at USC. He said before the Trojans’ victory over Illinois in the Rose Bowl that he would not comment on reports or rumors about a possible return to the NFL.
Carroll reportedly spoke with Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank while Carroll was on vacation in Hawaii this month.
Last year, while vacationing in Costa Rica, Carroll interviewed with Miami Dolphins owner Wayne Huizenga.
So Pete may not be leaving Socal this year, but what about next year? He keeps meeting with NFL organizations, so he clearly wants to leave Socal. I wonder what the recruits who are about to sign on the dotted line next year think about that.
You’re a beaver.
