Why would an NFL team pursue him over someone like Carmichael though?

Soooo when you got out of college took a job made good money you stopped striving to achieve more? Not money but stacking up against others in your profession ? Do t give me that.

Biggest turnaround anyone has ever seen and the only variable was Joe Brady.

Not talented enough to aim for anything more?
And for the record there ain't a thing wrong with anything you listed. But it's pretty obvious there's more to the world than that. And the guy has the talent and ambition to go get it. Sorry that you only have the talent and ambition to be a backbiter of someone better than you.

I seem to recall a Championship-winning LSU head coach who also wanted to "coach at the highest levels", who washed out in the NFL and subsequently ended up at our biggest rival.
I wish Joe all the best, but he represents the current job hopping mentality. All things being equal (read: money), there's something to be said for sticking with a good thing and building a legacy.
Oh well, onward and upward...

Ambitious?
p.s. He’s not making a couple mil a year at LSU. Not. Even. Close.

You're the one valuing settling somewhere versus reaching your full potential.
Sorry, nobody is "settling" for a 7-figure football coaching job. It's not a real job or a real career, it's a cog in a kid's game that feeds on other people's disposable income. There's an f-ton of guys working in trades and crafts who would kill for that money, and if they stopped working the world would come to a halt.
Yeah, I spend a lot of money watching that game every year, but in the end I know I can't take that money with me so I'm gonna make sure my life is fulfilled in part by watching it while I'm living.

I'd be happy. and the occasional co-ed to roll around with only makes it better.
It's the next logical step in a young coach's career. Why would he not try to advance his career?

You never know, maybe in comes back in 5-10 years and becomes the LSU head coach!

If the NFL is calling and you choose to stay in the amateur league, you're settling. Sorry.

Well whatever your life situation is. Surely, You would like more money. There’s always someone looking at your life thinking you have it made. Even if you lived in a trailer, someone envies that.
He’s young and running full steam. Of course he wants to take advantage of it.

Not knocking Brady or Carolina, as much as I’m confounded as to why Carmichael doesn’t get more love.

It's just as much of a real job or career as an oil field worker, a plumber, an electrician, or anything else.
Just because you don't value it as highly doesn't make it not a real job or career.

This whole thread is the epitome of "OK Boomer"
OP very obviously doesn't understand that the world he grew up in and built his life in is totally different from the world Joe Brady entered a few years ago, and also very obviously doesn't have a tenth of Brady's talent or ambition. Yet thinks himself entitled to pass judgment because Brady made a business decision he doesn't like. Unbelievable.
