Saying he has "nothing to gain" is ridiculous. He wants a new challenge. He took USC to the top and has nowhere to go from there. It's the same thing every year (ok, so they didn't do so hot this year). But the NFL is a new challenge. Just look at WSOP commish Jeremy Pollack. He's at the top, he's built up the WSOP to the biggest its ever been; and now he's moved on to find a new challenge. Many would say he has nothing to gain by leaving..... Thirdly, maybe he would like a chance to prove everybody wrong who keeps saying he's a terrible NFL coach. All that said, I'm a pessimistic Seattle sports fan who isn't excited about this move other than the fact that the Huskies don't have to have Carroll on the USC sideline anymore. [/QUOTE]
