Former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll is not sure if, or when, he will return to the sidelines. But he is returning to USC, albeit in a different role: as a professor starting in the spring.
“I’m looking forward to that,” Carroll said on Sports Radio 93.3 KJR-FM on Tuesday. “It’s going to be a really exciting endeavor when it’s finalized and all that.”
USC confirmed Carroll’s role in a statement to the Los Angeles Times on Wednesday, saying, “We are excited to welcome Pete Carroll home to USC in a new capacity in which he can, as a legendary coach and leader, share his knowledge and experience with our students.”
It’s not clear at this time what coursework Carroll will be teaching, but the 72-year-old has had an interest in working in education for a while and without a desire to get back into coaching – at least not right now – it isn’t a surprise to see him transition into a new endeavor.
Carroll was the head coach at USC from 2001 to 2009, going 97-19 and winning seven bowl games before moving on to the NFL where he led the Seahawks to a Super Bowl championship in 2014 and another appearance in 2015.
