It was really the craziest fiasco coaching search ever I think. Then, the ending...Zorn. Thud.

I don't know how they could go w/ Zorn over GW. Unbelieveable.

Thats a GREAT point. Cerrato throwing out all of this crap about Zorn's ego, when the main reason he got rid of GW was because he knew that GW wouldn't let him run the show unchallenged (3 Pass Catchers *cough*) and on the flip side brought in Zorn because he thought he could control him. Same holds true apparently for why he didn't bring in Fassel. Cerrato was so egotistical that rather then hire a real head coach that might threaten his authority he promoted an offensive coordinator that wasn't even close to ready to run a football team.

The yes man, wanted his own yes man.

On top of that he's terrible with the media and his one real accomplishment in the world of football aside from stealing a couple mil from Redskin fans is that he "convinced" kids in the 80's to attend Notre freaking Dame. Which back then was about as difficult as convincing little kids to eat candy.

Greg Williams deserved to be the head coach here. 3 out of the 4 years he was here, he fielded top 10 defenses with a little above average talent. Vinny is a weak thin skinned clown and you were dead on as to why he wasn't hired. Vinny remembered what happened to him the last time a strong willed coach was hired. Williams went on to win a SB with New Orleans while Vinny's fate was sealed with the Zorn hire.

“We tried to help him, and he wouldn’t listen,” Cerrato said of Zorn.
