Pete Carroll: I'm never going back to the NFL

USC head coach Pete Carroll mused with Miami Herald Sports Columnist Dan Le Batard about life in the college coaching ranks, and how it compares to life in the NFL, and matter of factly said he is not interested in ever going back to the professional ranks.

''No,'' he says. ``I'm a professional college coach. I think the NFL's a wonderful place, man. I love it. The competition at the top you can possibly reach, all the resources and backing. It was awesome to be in that arena. But this is an extraordinary fit for me. I couldn't be happier where I am. I'm having so much fun.''
