The Seahawks’ coaches were looking for new jobs after Carroll moved to an advisory role two weeks ago, ending a 14-year run that included a Super Bowl championship — a change that seemed somewhat forced by Seahawks ownership. “We can’t wait to get to work at a franchise with such a storied history and passionate fan base.“ The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season!
