NEW YORK — When a team
aherits a new football coach, it
pally takes time to adjust to his
ihilosophy. In Pittsburgh’s case,
lowever, the adjustment should
eeased by the fact the Panthers
avea bigger goal — a national
Jiampionship.
With Coach Jackie Sherrill’s
lection to Texas A&M, Pitt-
ilirgh named defensive coordi-
itor Serafino “Foge” Fazio as
ead coach.
And it looks as if Fazio not
illy has the best team in the
Xbuta team capable of a per-
ect season, despite one its
lughest schedules in years.
“We have great respect for
>ach Fazio,” says Pitt senior
uarterback Dan Marino, who
irected the Panthers to three
traight 11-1 seasons and claims
is team now is capable of win
ing the title.
“He’s been here for five years
nd in that time, he’s made our
efense the best in the country,
iherrill was a great coach for us
nit when he left, the rest of the
leaching staff stayed. Sure a
lew head coach has a different
ihilosophy, but when it comes to
certain point, it’s the players
hat have to go out and win, and
think we can.”
If Pitt is to make a run at the
lational championship, it will be
the arm of Marino. Last sea
son he completed 226 of 380
passes for 2,876 yards and 37
TDs. And for good measure, he
was named MVP of the Sugar
Bowl after guiding the Panthers
to a last-minute 24-20 victory
over Georgia.
Also returning from last
year’s No. 2 team are 17 other
starters. Among that group are
wide receivers Julius Dawkins
and Dwight Collins and tight
end John Brown, who combined
to catch 29 TD passes in 1981.
Up front, the line is anchored
by tackles Jimbo Covert (6-

270). Bryan Thomas, a 1,000-
yard rusher last season, leads the
running corps with Marc Bailey
and Marlon McIntyre sharing
the fullback spot.

Astros recall J.R.
rom Tuscon club
United Press International
HOUSTON — Pitcher J.R. Richard, called up from the minor
agues for September, will have to improve his stuff to pitch again
the major leagues, Houston Astros General Manager A1 Rosen
indicated.
The Astros Monday told Richard, who suffered a massive
rokein 1980, to report to Houston next week after he goes to the
tound Wednesday night for the final season game with Houston’s
ucson minor league team.
“1 would love to see him pitch, but I just don’t know,” Rosen said
oniNew.York, where the Astros played the Mets Monday night.
“He was wild his last time out and he is still working on his
tiythm. We will have to see how he progresses.”
■ Richard was placed on the major-league roster last September,
ut he did not pitch last season because of the pennant race.
The Astros’ failure to get him into a game caused the 6-8,
50-pound Richard to lose intensity in his rehabilitation eff ort and
areport to spring training this year out of shape.
Richard, placed on the Astros’ lowest minor league team, work-
dhisway up and now has a good chance to pitch for the first time
nee he collapsed July 30, 1980, with a massive stroke.
Rosen said Richard would probably pitch batting practice.
“The more he throws from the mound to live hitters, the better
lewillbe.” Rosen said. “But all of this is up to the pitching coach.
It (Richard) still has the same kind of determination he always
Behind we felt he deserved the opportunity to come up.”
Richard pitched well in Class A minor-league ball, but has not
erformed as well with Class-AAA Tucson.
In addition to Richard, the Astros also called up pitchers Mark
loss, Dan Boone and Zac Paris, infielder Bill Doran and outfiel-
ers Scott Loucks and Larry Ray.

QUALITY FIRST
Otherwise, the Panthers will
start the same players as last year
when they gave up just 62.4
yards per game rushing to lead
the nation.
Unlike previous seasons, the
Panthers won’t have many
breathers during the season.
They open at home against
North Carolina (Sept. 9) fol
lowed by games at Florida State
and Illinois. The Panthers also
are hosts to Notre Dame (Nov. 6)
and close the season at Penn
State (Nov. 26).
Joe Paterno, with a winning
percentage of 81.9 (151-33-1)
during his 16-year coaching
reign at Penn State, will be hard-
pressed to duplicate last year’s
10-2 campaign, which included
a 48-14 victory over Pitt and a
26-10 thrashing of Southern Cal
in the Fiesta Bowl.
Todd Blackledge returns at
quarterback and tailback Curt
Warner, if he stays healthy, will
star on offense. Question marks
on the of fensive line and at line
backer, coupled with a schedule
that includes Nebraska, Alaba
ma, Notre Dame and Pitt, may
leave the Nittany Lions just
short of the Panthers for East
honors.
West Virginia, 9-3 last year
following a 26-6 triumph over
Florida in the Peach Bowl, en
ters its third season under Coach
Don Nehlen. Penn State trans
fer Jeff Hostetler should replace
Oliver Luck at quarterback and
his primary target will be tight
end Mark Raugh.
On defense, the Moun
taineers return nine starters, in
cluding linebackers Dennis
Fowlkes and Darryl Talley. With
Joe Paterno, with a
winning percentage of
81.9 (151-33-1) during
his 16-year coaching

thrashing of Southern
Cal in the Fiesta Bowl.
its opening game at Oklahoma
and, with Pitt and Penn State on
the schedule, finishing with
eight victories may be a tall
order.
At Syracuse, new coach Dick
MacPherson has problems. Joe
Morris, the Orangemen’s
alltime leading rusher, quarter
back Dave Warner and kicker
Gary Anderson are gone — and
there are no sure replacements.
A record better than .500 will be
a success.
Navy, also with a new coach in
Gary Tranquill, has installed a
multiple-T offense to help quar
terback Marco Pagnanelli.
Seven starters return on defense
but just four on offense. The
Midshipmen open against Virgi
nia and former coach George
Welsh before meeting Arkansas
and Notre Dame. A fourth bowl
bid in the last five seasons seems
unlikely.
Having suffered his first los
ing season (5-6) in nine years at
Rutgers, Coach Frank Burns has
16 starters back. The defense
will have to carry the Scarlet
Knights until Burns gets the
offense together.
At Temple, five quarterbacks
are vying to replace Tink Mur
phy — and the winner will have
a capable offensive line, but the
defense is weak and that could
mean disappointment for the
Owls.
