    I saw a nice piece on him on the NFL Network just last night. Doug Williams, who was coached by him at Grambling was on and said some very nice things about him. He seemed like a super high quality person. I especially liked the comment that he tried to coach his players as if they were gonna marry his daughter! IOW, he tried to graduate better men, not just better football players. Truly, a great coach and a great man and role model.

    Coach Robinson was Grambling,one thing that I remember about him,was that he never offered a excuse as an answer. He will be missed. RIP
