NFL- Seattle Seahawks Hired Schneider And Carroll For a New Beginning
The Seattle Seahawks are looking for a new beginning. Last week, they hired Pete Carroll from USC to be their new head coach, replacing Jim Mora, and then hired the Green Bay Packers football operations director John Schneider as General Manager. Schneider was a candidate for the head coach position initially, but was surpassed by Peter Carroll for Carroll’s more aggressive style of coaching. Schneider was then brought to Seattle as General Manager; the Seahawks headquarters feel that he will have the right chemistry to manage the team with Carroll. Carroll was introduced to the team and media on January 15th; since then, although he was kindly received by both the fans and the team staff, he hasn’t had time to breathe. The Seahawks immediately began the search for a new General Manager Carroll has had an odd history. After he was fired by the New England Patriots in 1999, he didn’t expect to be hired again on the NFL. However, he began a brand new football program with USC, restoring the dynasty there. The USC football program is now one of the best in the country. More recently, Carroll was interviewed by Seahawks chief executive officer Tod Leiweke, who offered him the Seahawks coaching position with executive benefits. The team desperately needed help; in the last two years, it has only won 9 games. Carroll may be the man to turn the team around. “I know that Paul Allen wants to win, and he doesn’t want to just win once in a while. He wants to win from now on,” Carroll said. “To me, that fits exactly with the way I think, and the way I’ve tried to present our football in recent years. It’s hard to imagine that the standards could be set so high, where you’re only judged by perfection. I have embraced that thought.” Allen is the team’s current owner. Part of the Microsoft Corporation, Allen bought the team in 1997; he was also at the team headquarters on Tuesday to welcome Carroll.
This week, on Wednesday, the team introduced John Schneider, hoping to end the rumors and suspicions that surrounded the GM position. According to Leiweke, the immediate connection and chemistry between Carroll and Schneider in last week’s interview finalized the decision. Their similar philosophies and perspectives can only had cohesion to the team. Schneider will be replacing Tim Ruskell. The Seahawks forced Ruskell to resign as GM and president just a month ago after the team’s poor performance this season. The Seahawks had a record of 5-11 for the regular season, lost their last four games, and missed the playoffs and so a chance at the Super Bowl. Schneider began his career in the NFL as a college intern. He became the Packers’ director of operations in May 2008 and acted as the top personnel assistant to the Packers’ GM for the six previous years. In 2000, he acted as Seattle’s director of player personnel. Schneider, along with Carroll, is expected to turn the Seahawks around.
