He contributed so much to college football.

I hadn't heard of Grambling State until Doug Williams came to us. I noticed his college team was playing on TV one year not long after SBXXII and saw how great of a team it was to watch. I watch the Bayou Bowl with Grambling and Southern every year as I do the Army/Navy game. Eddie Robinson was one of the greatest coaches and individuals college football has ever known. To get as many wins as he did with such limits as the school had was an amazing feat that not many (if any others) could have achieved.

He'll be missed.
