Wednesday February 05, 2003
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. (AP) The son of Steve Mariucci signed
a national letter of intent to attend Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo on
Wednesday the same day his father was introduced as the new coach
of the Detroit Lions.
Tyler Mariucci is a 6-foot-0, 180-pounder who played quarterback
and defensive back at Valley Christian High in San Jose, Calif. He
completed 65 of 105 passes for 1,107 yards and 13 touchdowns with
just three interceptions and rushed for 350 yards and seven TDs
last season.
Steve Mariucci signed a five-year contract reportedly worth $25
million with the Lions. He was fired as coach of the San Francisco
49ers last month after six years on the job. His San Francisco
teams had a 60-43 record and qualified for the playoffs four times.
