Am I the only one on this board who dislikes Pete Carroll?

[Jack Lambert]

Just curious. I really don't like that guy. I guess it's flowing over from his cheating days at USC. I use to like the Seahawks now I hope they lose every game.

[Todd4State]

If you don't like coaches that are goofy, then you will hate him.

Personally, I think he would be fun to play for because he likes to have fun, but at the same time he's going to make you work and get the best out of you.

I'd like to know his secret to getting his players to be meaner and nastier than Harbaughs with his personality.

Whatever it is he just figured it out. Pretty sure harbaugh owned Carroll while at Stanford

Every big winning college football program "cheats".

His players and his staff buy in and grind hard. That makes him a great head coach.

[smootness]

I didn't like him in college, but he doesn't bother me in the NFL. He bucks the trend of tight-lipped, uber-serious NFL coaches. Plus, I like the Seahawks as a team...love me some Russell Wilson.

[quickstrike2]

I just didnt like him or USC at all during his tenure there. He has done a great job in the NFL. I never thought Wilson would be a NFL caliber guy, but they made that decision and it has worked very well. Carroll's style works, there's no denying it.

He didn't beat the 49ers, the refs did. One of the worst, most lop-sided officiating jobs I've seen in the NFL in quite some time. Quite literally, on the 49ers' last drive, they should have been taking knees to run the clock. Only reason they needed to score a TD was the refs.

[EAVdog]

no

[mstatefan91]

Nope. He seems more like a politician than a football coach.

[Dawgtini]

Nope. He is weasly.

Most politicians don't get good results. You can't say that about Carroll

Butthurt much?

I like Carroll. Good coach, quirky personality. Not sure what there is to dislike, but I guess everybody's got a hater somewhere.

[SPMT]

Seems like he'd be awesome to play for. Jim Harbaugh is so intense and serious it almost see like a put on. It's lie he's trying to tell everyone, no I want to in more than you, when the desire is there for every head coach. I still like Harbaugh though as well.

[hailmari]

I hated him at USC but I love how this Seahawks team plays. I also can't help but cheer for a team with a State guy at starting LB and two others on the practice squad. I hope/think they get rings.
