A comment from The GOOOOOSE

[Terd Ferguson]

I thought this was interesting:

What are the chances that Tony Sparano will join this staff?

Old Cowboys coaches have a way of drifting back here. I wouldn't be surprised to see Tony Sparano come back. Todd Haley, Mike Zimmer and maybe even Norv Turner or a Dave Wannstedt might be names to keep an eye on as well.

I don't see room for Zimmer or Wannstedt here unless they want to coach the secondary (Campo is gone this offseason, probably retired but certainly not re-signed). As long as Ryan is here, it is unlikely those defensive guys come back.

Turner or Sparano though...I'd love to have either. I think the OL would be better if Sparano was here and we would run more. I think the running game AND Romo would be better if Norv was here. I'm great with either, but I think having Norv here would be better for the offense. He may be at the point now where he just becomes nothing but an OC for the rest of his career (unless his late surge saves his job even though they will miss the playoffs).

Doesn't matter whether THA GOOOOOSE wants them here - what matters is whether or not JERRY wants them here.

No. JASON is in charge of his coaching staff. Goose didn't say he WANTED him here, he said don't be surprised.

Again, ignore whatever you hear Jason and Jerry say right now. They can't come out in the middle of the season and say they need to add an OC. They CAN spin it in the offseason ("hey, when a coach as good as Norv Turner is available, you want them around your team").

I'm not saying they WILL bring them, just found it interesting that someone that speaks to GMs, coaches, and media types thinks it would not be surprising at all.

would definitely be an offseason move, if it happens
