Falcons want to interview USC's Carroll

Sources: Falcons want to interview USC's Carroll for head coaching vacancy

Multiple sources told ESPN.com late Tuesday night that the Falcons are pursuing Pete Carroll for an interview. If Carroll agrees, and the logistics can be arranged, the Southern California coach could huddle with Atlanta owner Arthur Blank by the weekend. Carroll, who has previously been a head coach in the NFL with the New York Jets and New England Patriots, would certainly become the biggest name on the list of Atlanta candidates.

Wow, did Arthur Blank not take any notes on this past season?

Local AM Stations are reporting that a offer would be roughly 7 to 8 million. Pete doesn't bother me as much as some of these other names I'm hearing about, but it's still a lot of money, and I seriously doubt Pete leaves USC.

Pete is currently in Hawaii at his vacation house. I hope these talk don't linger very long because many Atlanta fans are already getting excited about this.

But Pete does have NFL experience.
