Former Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll has been looking for a new job since he was sacked from the Head Coach position. Recently, many rumors linked him to Alabama Crimson. Owner of the Seahawks, Jody Allen, said, “After thoughtful meetings and careful consideration for the best interest of the franchise.” The decision came after Carrol’s Seahawks missed out on the playoffs for the third time in two seasons.

Ryan Grubb had left the offensive coach position from Alabama for the Seahawks. This has created a massive vacancy at the franchise, which is also looking for a perfect candidate to fill in the space.

News relating Pete Carroll to Alabama is fake

As reported by AllTide 24/7, Pete Carroll had interviewed for the vacant Offensive Coach position at Alabama. This news created a stir on social media due to Carroll’s massive influence as a coach. Carroll spent fourteen seasons at the Seahawks. Under him, the franchise made ten playoff appearances and won their lone Super Bowl championship.

After an emotional farewell from the Seattle Seahawks, Carroll remains unspecified regarding his future endeavors. It’s not unusual for a coach to take some time off after spending fourteen seasons at one franchise. Irrespective of the uncertainty, news linking him to Alabama has no basis, as the OC position at Alabama remains vacant following Grubb’s departure.

As Alabama continues looking for a deserving offensive coach, Pete Carroll still needs to join them. However, the franchise has shortlisted many candidates and could use experience and expertise from other options. Scott Huff, the Offensive Line coach at Alabama (and previously at the University of Washington for the 2023 season), has left the University of Alabama for the same position at the Seattle Seahawks.

Many options have surfaced for who could fill up the position at Alabama. Kirby Moore is on the list of coaches with experience as an offensive coach. After DeBoer left for Washington, Moore filled the position, showing strong leadership courage. He has been dubbed as a rising future coach who can help the attack.

JaMarcus Shephard is another option who has also displayed valor as a coach who can improve the team’s offense. Another internal candidate is Nick Sheridan. While looking at coaches from Washington, Scott Huff is another out-of-the-box option who can put in a shift at Alabama.
