Look how man black athletes he sent to the NFL. Then when they said he couldn't send a black QB to the pros he developed James Harris. Who was the first black full time starter at QB and first black QB to take his team to the Superbowl.

Then after James Harris he developed Doug Williams.

In 1941, the 22-year-old Robinson assumed his duties as head football coach at Grambling State. The days of assistant coaches, offensive and defensive coordinators, and specialty coaches were long in the future, so Robinson did everything: He taught offense and defense, mowed the football field, fixed sandwiches for road trips through towns that would not serve blacks in restaurants, taped his players' sore joints, and even wrote game stories for the newspapers. He had strict standards of personal conduct and educational achievement for his players. In his first year the team went 3-5-1, but the following season--during which he recruited new players and dismissed those who did not live up to his expectations--the Tigers had a perfect 9-0 season, going unbeaten, untied, and unscored on.

22 years old!!! Eddie Robinson was a giant...put several hundred players in the nfl

changed his offense becauee he wanted to develop black qbs for the NFL

:salute: rep for the thread

"Eddie Robinson held several jobs other than football coach, including teaching at Grambling High School, and coaching the girls basketball team during World War II. His girls team lost the state championship by 1 point. He also coached boys basketball, baseball, directed band and was in charge of the cheerleaders, with a budget of $46.

Robinson recorded just one losing season between 1960 and 1990; however, after three consecutive losing seasons in the mid-1990s, pressure mounted for the now 78-year old coach to resign. Fellow college coach Joe Paterno is quoted in the Grambling State press guide as saying, "Nobody has ever done or ever will do what Eddie Robinson has done for the game.... Our profession will never, ever be able to repay Eddie Robinson for what he has done for the country and the profession of football."

:damn:
