Dan Loumena from the LA Times has learned that USC head coach Pete Carroll is resigning his post and will be taking the head coaching job with the Seahawks...
Gary Klein of the Times learned Carroll told the school's players and coaches via text message... Seahawks CEO Tod Leiweke was in town Sunday to cross and dot what needed to be crossed and dotted...
The LA Daily News Scott Wolf sets the carousel in motion again...
Wolf has Oregon State's Mike Riley in the immediate running for the now-vacant USC job. But AD Mike Garrett would also like for Norm Chow to return to SC as the OC.
Carroll may also be interested in Chow, Jeremy Bates, and USC O-Line coach Pat Ruel for his Seattle staff. ESPN is reporting that Ken Norton, Junior is jumping with Carroll from his linebackers coach post in LA.
Others interested in the head coaching gig are Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Jack Del Rio and Utah's Kyle Whittingham.
The HQ is intrigued by the individuals intersted in the head coaching gig in LA. We like the idea of Del Rio going back to his alma mater and we wouldn't be surprised if Jags owner Wayne Weaver gave Del Rio the go-ahead to kick the Trojan tires.
Mike Garrett is going to have to pay someone well- knowing full well that the program will be taking it in the shorts from the NCAA very soon. Whoever the new head coahc is will have to extraordinarily patient with the upcoming circumstances.
