Naw, that was me. I'm Canadian, I spell shit weird (queen's English and all that garbage).
Mr. Horsepower; for every comparison to Saban, Spurrier, there's always the other side of the coin w/ Jimmy Johnson & Barry Switzer who have won super bowls after coming up from college. There is a precedent for college guys coming up and having success (they don't all flop).
Difference between Carroll and the college to NFL failures is that Carroll started out in the NFL and went to college, and now he's coming back; so he knows what he's doing in this league. The other guys, perhaps not s'much.
FWIW, if you read up on the back story, Pete didn't really get a fair shot w/ the Pats or the Jets. He was the coach, but had no say in personnel. That's like not letting a chef choose their own ingredients. Bob Kraft has actually said publicly he regrets having fired Pete. And IIRC, he has a SB ring as DC of the 9'ers in 94.
...and don't hate on the neon baby. We're so awesome we glow in the dark!
Congratulations on handing us our asses.
Still forever greatful for giving us the pick that became Earl Thomas.
