The Eddie Robinson Museum on the Grambling State University campus honors a great American who coached the Grambling football program for over 50 years. Robinson was an incredibly-successful coach, who is currently the winningest college football coach in American history, but focusing on his football success would miss the basis of his true greatness. More than developing good football players, Robinson sought to develop men, setting standards of behavior and conduct for his players to enable them to succeed on or off the football field.

A really cool new addition to the Grambling State University campus is the Eddie Robinson Museum, which opened in 2010. The museum celebrates the legacy of Coach Eddie Robinson, Grambling’s football coach who set an NCAA record for the greatest number of victories in a career. The museum contains trophies, photos, video footage, old Grambling football equipment from the early days, a wall featuring all the players from Grambling that made it into the NFL, and an exhibit about Grambling’s world-famous Tiger Band. There is also a gift shop, and admission is free, although donations are requested.
