Mike Tomlin to USC? Twitter Reacts

Former USC quarterback Carson Palmer appeared on the Dan Patrick Show on Monday, to discuss potential candidates for the head coaching vacancy in Southern California.

Palmer was asked about frontrunners for the position, and threw out one big name in the NFL, that surprised many. “You’ve got Penn State, you’ve got Iowa State, you’ve got Cincinnati,” Palmer said. “You’ve got a wild card like [Pittsburgh Steelers head coach] Mike Tomlin.”

This isn’t the first time we’ve heard a NFL coach mentioned for the USC job; but it is the first time Tomlin's name has been thrown around. Tomlin is loved by many within the Steelers organization and fanbase; and the thought of him leaving has many scratching their heads. Take a look...

Needless to say, if Mike Tomlin had any interest whatsoever in the USC job, it’s time back up the Brinks truck.

Sure, his name could be in the mix, just like Bill Belichick, John Harbaugh, Andy Reid and Sean McVay's names could also be in the mix. https://t.co/leBF6IutjD
