Pete Carroll jacked up for Facebook

Pumped up about this social networking opportunity. Go ahead ... poke Pete Carroll.

USC's football coach is now a member of Facebook. Out of all the nation's social networking sites, it probably has the least e-glitter. Started as a college-only network, it's now open to anybody but is especially popular with students.

Carroll lists his interests as teaching, coaching, playing basketball and surfing. He likes to watch "24" and his favorite book, of course, is "The Inner Game of Tennis."

Favorite Music? James Brown, the Fray, Foo Fighters, Beach Boys, Bruce Springsteen, Jack Johnson, Kanye West, the Rolling Stones, and Stevie Wonder.

He's in only one group, even though there are dozens of groups dedicated to him (including Pete Carroll Is God, Pete Carroll Is a Saint, Pete Carroll for President). He's a member of "1,000,000 USC Fans," along with 102 other people.

The funniest part is that Carroll lists five of his favorite quotes, but a student at Northwestern (of all places), wrote on Carroll's wall that the three most common Pete-isms were missing: "I'm jacked," "I'm pumped" and "I'm psyched!"
