Pete Carroll place in history

[THE Bruce Dickinson]

If Pete Carroll and the Seahawks repeat in the Superbowl where does he land on the all time great coaches? I honestly think you have to start considering him for one of the best ever, being the one of the only people to ever win it all at the college and pro level. Thoughts ?

Pretty sure Barry Switzer and jimmy johnson have too

Best coach in the NFL.

Love his energy & passion for the game

Agreed, easily one of the best.

If he had stayed at USCw, I wouldn't have considered him - it's hard not to succeed somewhere with the money and recruiting draw of USCw. Plus he has always struck me as pretty slimy.

However, he has turned an up and down franchise with no real history into an annual powerhouse.

He is proof that you don't need to be a Belichick or Harbaugh to be an all-timer in the NFL - a "player's coach" can do it too.

You are right. Still impressive accomplishment though
