Carroll began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at the University of Arkansas in 1977. He went on to serve as an assistant coach at several colleges before landing his first head coaching job at the University of the Pacific in 1983. He then spent five years as the head coach at the University of Southern California, leading the Trojans to two national championships and seven straight Pac-10 titles. In 2010, Carroll became the head coach of the Seattle Seahawks of the National Football League (NFL), guiding the team to two Super Bowl appearances and one championship in his first five seasons.

Throughout his career, Carroll has been known for his innovative coaching techniques and his ability to motivate his players. He emphasizes the importance of competition and positive reinforcement, creating a culture of positivity and teamwork on his teams. He has also been credited with popularizing the read-option offense in the NFL, which involves the quarterback making a split-second decision to hand off the ball or keep it and run himself. Carroll is widely regarded as one of the most successful and influential coaches in American football history. Read even more about Pete Carroll at Wikipedia
