WT: A Conversation with Jim Zorn

[jsarno]

Little known fact about how Zorn's interview went with Snyder:

Snyder: "Jim, what do you think of Vinny Cerrato"?
Zorn: "Well Mr. Snyder, I think he is the most talented man in football with the exception of yourself of course, and he will win us multiple super bowls due to his vast knowledge and intelligence".
Snyder: "Duuuude, you are hired!"


I am hoping his youth and vigor will translate to wins, but I am expecting a learning curve. I know we have good coaches in place, but this guy doesn't have the experience. He will have to learn how to win in the NFL, and we already witnessed a hall of fame coach struggle in his return.
Plenty of people know how to say the right things...see Steve Spurrier.
This could be the steal of a lifetime, or the dumbest move there was. Time will tell, and I will hold judgement until I see how he handles the players.

Really? I must have missed that day.

wow, you have a poor memory eh? You don't recall Spurrier coming out after his first few days and saying how he planned to beat the Cowpatties and make that rivalry a priority for him? How about when he apologized for the performances of the Skins? There were plenty of comments he made that were correct, but there was never the results.

ps- and Zorn still has a little ways to go for me to get over the "maroon and yellow" comment. That was not a very good start.
