Nolan Named 49ers Head Coach To Lead Win Habit
Dick Nolan, formerly Dallas Cowboys assistant and defensive specialist, was introduced as the San Francisco 49ers new head coach on a five year deal with full authority over players and staff. NFL veteran Nolan played for Maryland and the Giants, helped Cowboys win titles, and will shape the 49ers toward their first championship in 22 years. He takes over after Jack Christiansen was fired following a 7 7 season as Lou Spadia promised him wide discretion while Tom Landry supported the appointment. Nolan plans to study game films and has yet to speak with players.
