I think the long-term plan is with Zorn. DS has tried bringing in big name/high profile coaches, with little to no success, he brought back JG - still my favorite move under his ownership, and now he has a young coach, and I believe that unless Zorn just cracks, DS will do everything possible to develop this guy and therefore the team into a SB caliber contender.

Plainly stated, the Long Term plan is to develop a newb HC, understanding he is not a "legend" and will make mistakes, and let this team grow and develop under his leadership.

I doubt most fans really want to hear about long term plans: look at the recent threads "when do we cut MK & DT" in another the author of the OP of this thread who wants a plan, also wants to bring in a WR (Holt) who is in his 13th year and noticibly declining. I certainly have actions I would have liked to seen happen (Hunter, Hixon) but VC and DS, look at all the options coming up and don't always go with the fan favorite of the day. That IS a good thing.
So yes I believe there is a plan, both short and long term, I am also certain many of the choices will irritate and confuse me, because I am not privy to the details of those plans.
Theres no doubt that a portion of skins fans have no patience at all. I'm sure there's fans of every team like that. There's also a strong # of fans that are patient as well. I'll respectfully disagree about VC and DS though. They don't have a long term plan or if they do it's really hard to tell what it is. They tend not to "think ahead." Exhibit A...the coaching search. On second thought you know they have one, but who knows what it is.

At the end of the day it is what it is and I can't wait for the draft and the season.

Amen.. March is for College Basketball

the blogosphere contains so many wanna be journalists that think they are the bottom line..period..everything you..read and hear is filtered to contain somebody's bias..some hate Danny...some Vinnie..some everyone

but the majority know so little about anything that really goes on..except they play fantasy football and have a computer
