Carroll "Recommends" Walker to SDSU

Bumped. In other words in Carroll's world SDSU > UCLA yet everyone buys his snake oil re. his respect for "tradition." All his BS last week about "jerseys" now looks like nothing short of a cheap PR stunt to show up the Bruins in our own house. GO BRUINS. -N

So Petey showed even more of his class by "recommending" DW for the SDSU job. He's been overflowing with graciousness this week, hasn't he? Per Dohn:

UCLA defensive coordinator DeWayne Walker did interview for the vacant head coaching position at San Diego State on Sunday (which I reported in Sunday's paper).
As an interesting twist, Walker's former boss, USC coach Pete Carroll, called the search firm handling the process to recommend Walker for the job.

Hmmmm...I wonder how many people were fooled into believing Carroll did this out of the goodness of his heart. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that DW's defenses have given Petey fits the last 3 years. In the same week that he managed to get praised for being an arrogant prick (regarding the jersey decision), he's now trying to look like a good guy when he's really just undermining his rival.

Now don't get me wrong here. I am all for Walker getting every opportunity he wants. I've made my opinion clear - I think he deserves a HC job. But we've all agreed that the SDSU job isn't exactly a top rate job right now. If Carroll really wanted his former assistant to succeed, he'd recommend that he wait a few years for programs like Tulsa, TCU, Utah, etc to open up. Those are the mid major positions that jump start careers. Or even better, call up a school like UW or Tennessee and tell them what a good coach DW is.

For a while it was funny, but I'm honestly sick of USC's classlessness. The jersey thing wasn't too bad IMO, but planting the sword, dancing on our logo, whining about late hits, etc have pushed me over. This is just another sick attempt to set our resurgence back, and quite frankly it pisses me off.

As Pat Forde said, "Stay Classy, Trojans".
