Mackovic named
Dallas QB coach
United Press International
DALLAS — Wake Forest coach John Mackovic, who directed the
Deacons to their first national ranking and enlivened their offense,
Tuesday was named quarterback coach of the Dallas Cowboys.
Mackovic compiled a 14-20 record in his three seasons at Wake
Forest and his 1979 team, basically the same that had gone 1-10 the
year before, went 8-4 and to the Tangerine Bowl. The Deacons were
5-6 last season.
After the 1979 season Mackovic, 37, was named coach of the year by
The Sporting News, the Walter Camp Football Foundation, and the
Atlantic Coast Conference in 1979.
Mackovic will fill the Cowboys job that opened when Dan Reeves
left to become head coach of the Denver Broncos. Cowboy coach Tom
Landry also announced Mike Ditka, who coached tight ends and
special terns for the Cowboys last year, also will coach wide receivers in
1981.
“I didnt think we would be able to add a coach at this late date, ”
Landry said. “But we’re very fortunate to be able to obtain a man of the
caliber of John Mackovic. We feel he’ll be a great assset because of his
extensive background in working with quarterbacks and with offenses
in general. He did a great job of turning around the program at Wake
Forest. He’s always coached quarterbacks and he’s always been a great
believer in a strong passing game. ”
In the past two seasons, his teams broke virtually every club
offensive record, both team and individual, as well as a number of
Atlantic Coast offensive marks.
Mackovic, a 1965 graduate of Wake Forest and quarterback for the
Deacons in 1964, served as an assistant at Miami of Ohio, the U.S.
Military Academy, San Jose State, Arizona and Purdue before be
coming the Deacons’ head coach.
