Halvorsen: 49ers jump at Mariucci
■ Continued from Rage 3/
Ross brings with him his staff
of quality assistants to replace
Fontes’ sorry bunch of goons that
all but personally lost two games
for Detroit this past season. All of
the sudden, the Super Bowl
doesn’t sound that far fetched for
a team that is loaded with talent
and players who do perform on a
regular basis.
Another winner in the big
coaching lottery will more than
likely be Atlanta. The Falcons
have picked up Dan Reeves from
the New York Giants and have
reportedly given him the same
basic control that Ross will get in
Detroit. Reeves is the winningest
active coach in the NFL, but he
was stifled by the Giants front of
fice that made most all
player/personnel decisions, part
ly causing Reeves to suffer his
first back-to-back losing seasons
in 31 years of coaching.
Bill Parcells, who is said to be
leaving New England after the
Super Bowl, got a similar deal
when he joined uj with ihe Pa
triots — nearly full control of
player decisions. When some
team does pick him up in this
offseason, they will probably
have to deal with the fact that he
will want full control and will
get it (listen up Giants). This
trend is going to continue; the
coaches receiving a lot of control
of operations, as long as teams
want to continue to win.
This leads to the whole fiasco
surrounding the San Francisco
49ers, former head coach George
Seifert, new head coach Steve
Mariucci and the decision maker
in the front office, Bill Walsh.
The whole thing was a little bit
fishy from the beginning and I
think that the outcome of it really
stinks.
The 49ers, instead of holding
out for a more qualified individ
ual, jump at the chance to sign
Mariucci whose college winning
percentage, after 12 full games as
a head coach at any big-time lev
el, is .500. There is some hubbub
abour \ Brel '<avie accredits
all of1 ‘ success to Mariucci
when . ay worked together with
the Packers, but that is a far cry
from being a major credential for
being a head coach in the NFL.
1 think that it boils down to
this with the Niners: Walsh was
controlling everything as far as
personnel, and I think even horn
ing in on Seifert’s job a little bit.
Seifert didn’t like it and left. Mar
iucci will come in and stand on
the sidelines acting as head
coach while Walsh does every
thing else leaving everybody
happy.
Seifert will come back and bite
the Niners some day, but he will
have total and complete control
over player and personnel opera
tions for another team. Just
watch.

Wrestling: Sonnen moves up for win
■ Continued from Page 9A
nine seconds remaining in the third period to tie the
score, sending the match into overtime. In the extra
period, Wood scored a takedown, winning the match
6-4.
“Everybody did their part,” Perkins said. “Even
the guys who lost kept it close enough and didn’t get
beat by that much and that kept the score close. We
came out on top as a team, and that’s what I’m happy
about.”
Justin Vaughan put the Beavers up 9-6 after the
150-pound match, defeating Jake Sellers 12-10, but
Scott Norton slammed the door shut on Oregon
State’s run by pinning Jason Gutches in the 158
pound match. Norton, wrestling at 158 for the last
time before going back down to 150, was up against a
bigger Gutches, who had just recently come down
from 167. Despite a rib injury that was visibly both
ering Norton, he got the pin with seven seconds re
maining in the second period. Norton’s fall put the
Ducks up 12-9 with four matches remaining.
“I was really nervous about it. My ribs had really
been bothering me this week, but there was nothing I
could do about it except try and wrestle through it,”
Norton said. “This whole week I’ve been wrestling
with bigger people in practice trying to get ready for
it, and I think that helped out a lot.”
“Gutches is strong, but Norton is so level-headed
when he wrestles and doesn’t get shook up about
anything,” Oregon head coach Ron Finley said. “He’s
very confident in his wrestling and he’s grown a lot
since he’s been here.”
Oregon’s Kevin Keeney beat Clint Wilson for the
second time this year, 7-5, and Chael Sonnen moved
up to 190, filling in for an injured Royce Repenn
where he defeated Jeramie York 11-5. Sonnen almost
got his fourth pin in five matches as he recorded a
near fall on York midway through the first period.
Oregon State’s Sanders Freed beat Troy Hughes
10-3 in the 177-pound match to keep the Beavers
within reach, but it came down to the heavyweight
match between the Ducks’ Rich Polkinghorn and
Mat Omdorff. Omdorff won 8-2, but needed a pin to
secure a tie for the meet.
Oregon will take its 3-0 Pac-10 record to Stanford
this Thursday for a 7:30 p.m. dual meet.
