NFL
and College Coach
Pete Carroll, is
the head coach of the NFL's
Seattle Seahawks.
The Seahawks, who are owned by Microsoft Billionaire Paul
Allen, fired Coach Jim Mora on Friday, January 8, 2010
and soon announced that Pete Carroll would step in as the
Seahawks' new coach. Prior to taking on the Seahawks job,
Carroll was best known for coaching the University of
Southern California Trojans since 2001,
Pete Carroll previously
coached in the NFL, serving as head coach for the New
England Patriots from 1997-99 and for the New York Jets
in 1994.
Carroll also worked as
the Jets' defensive coordinator from 1990-93, the
defensive backs coach for the Minnesota Vikings (1985-89)
and the Buffalo Bills (1984).
In Carroll's first year
as the Seahawks head coach, he led the team to the
playoffs, ending the regular season with a 7-9 record and
an NFC West Divisional Championship.
In Carroll's third season
with Seattle, the Seahawks made it to the playoffs as a
wild card, and defeated the Washington Redskins 24-14 in
the first round of the postseason.
