Professor Pete? Former Trojans, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll returning to USC to teach a class
Associated PressThe AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! Carroll told KJR-FM on Tuesday that he plans to teach a class at USC in the spring, and the university confirmed Wednesday the championship-winning football coach’s return in some role. “We are working on the details and hope to share more specifics later.” The 72-year-old Carroll coached USC through the Trojans’ best stretch of the past half-century from 2001-09. Owner Jody Allen said Carroll would become an advisor to the team, but Carroll told KJR that he hasn’t done much advising. USC hasn’t recaptured its powerhouse form in the 15 seasons since Carroll’s departure, employing six head coaches and struggling to win consistently despite rosters frequently stacked with NFL-level talent.
