“You have to wait and see how this all goes,” Pete Carroll said. “But at this time, I don’t know. I’ve been on the practice field. I don’t know what’s going on with that. As you would think, we’re aware of what’s going on and we’ve been involved to understand it and compete to know what’s happening. And we’ll let you know as it all happens. So I didn’t say yes, or I didn’t say no. That’s just cause… you’ll see.”
