Southern California coach Pete Carroll is interested in the Falcons’ head coach opening and spoke with Atlanta owner Arthur Blank via phone Wednesday…Carroll spoke with USC sports information director Tim Tessalone on Wednesday and reiterated the he “understands that his name is going to come up for NFL jobs, as it has in each of his past years here, but that he was not going to comment about NFL openings because it would just lead to speculation.
This is crap. Why does he do this every year? ATL is the worst possible place for him to go if he wants to go to the League. I guess it doesn’t hurt to talk, but if it’s not realistic for him to leave USC then he should stop talking to NFL owners every year so that the rest of us can sleep easier. Petey, stop it! Now! You ain’t going nowhere! You go back to the hood and recruit more athletes, please?
Stupid ESPN. They always hype up shit like that.
