And it was because of that success, that Prothro landed the San Diego job in 1974 and again as a youngster, I just thought every former Ram Head Coach went to San Diego, Gillman, Svare & Prothro. Problem Prothro was better at personnel then being a game day Head Coach and was fired in 1978 after his best record with the Chargers was 7-7 and replaced by Don Coryell, who along with Bill Walsh were the two Coaches I wanted the Rams to hire to replace Chuck Knox in 78 and not George Herbert Allen Part 2.
Thank for the reminder (ugh). What a botched hire. Bill Walsh......oh, what might have been.
