IRVING, Texas (AP) _ Bill Parcells already has a plan for what he's going to do after the season.

But he wouldn't say Wednesday whether he will return next season to finish his contract with the Dallas Cowboys.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has indicated several times publicly that he wants Parcells to come back. The owner wasn't available for comment Wednesday.

The Cowboys haven't been to the Super Bowl since winning their fifth championship 11 years ago when Barry Switzer was the coach. Switzer was hired in 1994 and he won the Super Bowl in his second season.

Switzer -- head coach at Oklahoma between 1973 and 1988 who won three national championships -- made a rare appearance at the Cowboys' practice facility today. He was seen in a hallway not far from where Parcells was talking to reporters.
