Default The passing of Coach Eddie Robinson...

Former Grambling coach Eddie Robinson passed away last night. The epitome of a man. Dignified, classy and a winner in the right way. Rest in Peace, coach.

Default A Great Loss for American Football

The legendary coach was probably my favorite of all time. He did more for college and pro football than arguably anyone else. He sent great black athletes to the NFL and ultimately changed the way the NFL was played.

He was quite a gentlemen from what I hear. I wish I would have had the chance to meet him. His legacy lives on but the class and dignity in which he lived his life is something special.

Default The passing of a good man...

Coach Eddie Robinson,

A Great Football Coach and an even Greater Human Being. He was a teacher and molder of young minds, as well as a shining example of consistency and class. May the Lord watch over his family, and keep them in his blessings during this most trying of times. Rest in peace Coach Eddie, you will be missed.
