Senior OWEN MARECIC, who Coach Jim Harbaugh calls the “perfect football player,” is a finalist for the Paul Hornung Award, which honors the nation’s most versatile football player.

Marecic, who is an AFCA All-American and CoSIDA Academic All-American, joins TCU’s Jeremy Kerley and Kentucky’s Randall Cobb on the final list. The winner will be announced in early January.

“Owen Marecic plays football the way we did years ago — tough, fearless, relentless,” said Hornung.

Marecic averages 110 plays per game as both the team’s starting linebacker and fullback.
