R.I.P.
The innovator and creator of the West Coast offense. The best coach during the 1980's, one of the best of all time. We'll miss the man. Don't hate yourself in the morning... sleep 'til noon.

I had no idea that he was even close. It kind of comes as a big shock to me.
Either way he will always be one of the greatest minds football has ever seen, on any level. |

RIP Coach. Screw Michael Vick and lets focus on some tributes ESPN/CNN.

I didn't think his leukemia was getting any worse since he was able to be very active around what Stanford's preparations were for their football team.

Very big loss for the Bay Area, and pretty much the entire NFL.
The guy is practically a legend at my house. It showed a lot of respect by the Merc to put that huge feature in there today R.I.P. |

 Wow
Not only was he a great coach, a genius in fact, he was a great guy who helped everyone. You never heard a bad thing about him, ever, and I am going to miss him. Win this season for Walsh. RIP |
