how many games did Eddie Robinson coach in what we call FBS now?


0

I was not arguing the fact of where he caoched but to make a staement that he coached at some roody poo school is disrepectful to the man and coach he was.

He coached and won during a time when black coachs were not allowed at major programs. Who knows what he could have done and a big program. The man could flat out coach. He took Grambling from less than a highschool team to national exposure. He put out many NFL players during his time there.

I remember wen he hit 400 and the Advocate did some features on him. They talked to one of his players from the 1970s. He said ER would punish players for mediocre grades, and he gave the coach credit for his successes in life after football.

I'm not disrespecting the man at all, but if you're gonna bring up FCS or D2 then you might as well do D3 and NAIA as well.
Bryant, Bowden, Paterno, etc didn't load up playing Northeast Jabroni State and Southern Roody Poo Poly like Robinson did.
