Pete Carroll is jumping ship

What to say about Pete Carroll jumping ship at USC...


It is sad to see that one of the greatest coaches in the game is abandoning the team when NCAA is soon to enforce some regulations on the Trojans. Coach Carroll has really turned things around at USC the team might arguably be the best team in the 00's.

One can easily see why Carroll decides to move on to the NFL and the Seahawks, but from my point of view it would have been classier of Carroll to stay and ride out the troubles at downtown LA.

Troubles that are forced upon Sothern Cal. because of players given benefits they weren’t allowed to get. Benefits that might have taken the team to the glories the school had during the last couple of years.

So i think Coach Carroll, while seeming to be a great guy, is acting cowardly. Leaving behind fans and more importantly players enrolled at the university behind. It is going to be really interesting to see the reaction on the high school players verbally committed to USC. There might be more people jumping ship!
