The Eddie G. Robinson Museum
Located on the campus of Grambling State University, the Eddie G. Robinson Museum honors the legendary coach who led the Tigers from 1941 to 1997. At the time of his retirement, “Coach Rob” held the record for most wins in NCAA Division I football, finishing with 408 victories, 17 conference titles and nine Black College Football National Championships.
More than 200 of his players went on to play professionally, and four became Pro Football Hall of Famers. Alumnus Doug Williams, who played under Robinson, became the first Black quarterback to win a Super Bowl, and he earned MVP honors in Super Bowl XXII.
The museum preserves and shares Robinson’s legacy through photographs, trophies, uniforms and memorabilia. Visitors can explore an interactive timeline of his life, walk through the team’s locker and film rooms, admire the Hall of Honors filled with awards and browse a jersey display highlighting notable Grambling alumni. It’s an inspiring tribute to one of the most influential figures in college football history.
The museum is located at 126 Jones St. on Grambling’s campus.
