Win Forever. Thats the catch phrase, ethos and inspirational book Pete Carroll left behind after his nine-year stint at USC ended in 2010. He resurrected the program back into college footballs elite and ever since USC has flailed in its attempts to chase those highs.
At the LA Coliseum on Thursday night, USC got another reminder of why it should have deviated from Uncle Petes coaching tree. As USC wheezed, sputtered and pre-snap retreated its way to a 1712 loss to pedestrian Washington (32), the Trojan faithful saw up-close the coach they let slip away.

If you are a Texas fan, it is even worse. So far Charlie is getting paid $5 million per win, and that win is against perennial loser Rice.
He will still get $ 5 million per win after this weekend’s loss to OU and have the distinction of being coach of the worst start in UT history at 1-5.

Garbage. This is on Strong in his second year.
Darrell Royal inherited an Ed Price coached team that went 1-9 NS 0-6 in conference and immediately the next year went 6-4-1 and to the Sugar Bowl.
Since freshman could not play back then, it was 100% someone else’s tem.
USC could have kept Coach ‘O’:

Or look at Bear Bryant at A&M, went 1-9 his first year and 7-2-1 his second year.
Exactly, USC has never recovered from that, it has little to do with the coach.
Right you are so no aggrandizing of Carroll on FR, please...
Reggie Bush has the empty Heisman Trophy space on his shelf to prove it!
Carroll is a cheat, liar and coward...typical Obambot.
BOW DOWN TO WASHINGTON!
Sark has tis year and next, then welcome Chip Kelly to USC where he will win multiple national championships.
And the Utes are coming up on the USC schedule. A bad time to be dealing with internal matters.
Make that $2.5 million per win.
I am as surprised as 99% of others like me
