Seahawks (ex-USC) Coach Pete Carroll (official thread)

Anyone else watch Pete's press conference and get the feeling that he was in denial about leaving and trying to justify it to himself?

Yeah he was amped. Said he hadnt slept in days.

But yeah, more than once he said he wasnt leaving, that he would still be around lol. Hes a smart man, gotta keep the door open in case he gets the boot after his first NFL season.

I wish I could laugh at Carroll and his bad luck with the timing of this, but I can't. Reading shit like this just makes my blood boil.

Watson is addicted to painkillers and can't handle his shit, so gets into trouble with the law after seriously injuring another driver in an auto accident, and he blames Carroll for his problems because Pete didn't help him?

GTFO.

Sack up and take your punishment like a fucking man.

I don't know if you read the whole article, but I didn't see anything in there suggesting that Watson blames Carroll. The guy who got rear-ended by Watson is the one blaming not only Carroll, but USC doctors and the University itself. Sounds like there is a good deal of evidence to suggest there's enough blame to go around, too. But no one is saying Carroll is some evil bastard, just that he was in some way negligent, and that his negligence may have contributed to this guy's spinal injuries.

If you had a spinal injury, would you be dogging guys who have shown in the past to be able to supply lots of really good painkillers?

Idiot.

I have mixed feelings about Petey leaving. I can only hope that a less capable coach is secured to lead SC back to average status. On the other hand, I now have to live with the fact that the only Irish coach to best Petey was Boob Davies.

It's obviously Ty Willingham's fault :)

49ers Blog and Q&A: Mays says he feels betrayed by Pete Carroll
April 23, 2010

Mays says he feels betrayed by Pete Carroll

To say that Taylor Mays is motivated is like saying Mike Iupati is kinda big. Asked if he was entering the league with a chip on his shoulder, Mays said the following: "I've probably got the biggest chip on my shoulder out of anybody in the draft."
Some of that chip/resentment/motivation is fueled by his former USC coach and current Seahawks coach, Pete Carroll, who yesterday took a safety in the first round, Texas' Earl Thomas. Asked about that turn of events, there was a pregnant pause. "Um, it was interesting," Mays finally said. "I definitely thought from the relationship we had, the things that he had told me about what I needed to be aware of with the draft process and things that I needed to do, I felt he told me the complete opposite of the actions that he took, which was definitely - it was alarming. ... I understand it's a business. But with it being a business, he needs to be honest. And that's all I was asking for."
How exactly did Carroll lead him astray? "Just in terms of, I didn't have anything to worry about, that my game was ok, that my backpeddling was fine ... my tackling was fine. It was all things that I asked - what I needed to work on, what I needed to show. I was kind of led to think that I was going to be ok. You know, it is what it is and I'm so happy to be with the 49ers on a team that Ronnie Lott played on."

SC fans seem to be siding with Taylor.

But when Petey says that USC will be fine sanction-wise......we can believe that, right?

What he meant to say is that Petey will be OK sanction-wise.

These creeps make millions exploiting amateur athletes and worry about nothing but their own success.
