When Norv Turner was hired, Jack Kent Cooke was just focused on getting his stadium built, then when he passed away John Kent Cooke was just focused on keeping the team under his ownership.

I don't think it was until Snyder came along that anyone in that front office was even really paying attention to the team. There was just so much else going on at the time.
