Former 49er head coach Bill Walsh died yesterday from luekemia.
He turned the losing 49er's into a three time Super bowl champions drafting 3rd round Joe Montana, 10th round Dwight Clark, and no name Jerry Rice from San Jose State.
He also helped open the door for minority head coaches.
If you were around the Bay Area during this era he was the most famous guy in sports.
