Maybe, but I think it was Snyder addressing how he looked like an idiot hiring assistants before a HC. I am sure VC didn't want a failed retread as HC Smooty, but Fassel was the biggest name left that had considerable HC experience. Maybe VC/Snyder also thought a young Zorn if he worked out could be a long term coach and give us the promised continuity after Gibbs left. Could be a whole bunch of angles that lead to hirng Zorn as the HC. I like the move for the latter angle about youth and continuity. If this guy can get the team behind him we could be a contender in a couple years. I think he will do much better than Spurrier(rookie year), but our '08 campaign might not be so hot as we would like. It is going to be interesting to see whoever stays in terms of our upcoming free agents. We might have some defections over the passing over of Williams and how half assed this whole search has gone.
