Never Before, Never Again: The Autobiography of Eddie Robinson

Neither of these words fully capture how great Eddie Robinson is... as a coach, father, or American. He is such a great role model for EVERYONE. He talks about wanting to make a difference in the lives of youth, but his story will make all types of people (hopefully) realize how fortunate they really are.. make them appreciate the country we live in, give them the strength to choose the high-road (choose to love the person that hurts you instead of getting mad or even). I can't even explain the feeling of respect and admiration I feel for this man.. he is so humble, so forgiving, so strong in his faith of people.. Eddie Robinson should be more well known than he is.

Eddie Robinson is truly one of the greatest pioneers in the history of athletics. The way he transformed a football program at a little known (if not unknown at the time) black college in the piney woods of north Louisiana, into a program of both national and international notoriety, is a true testament to his greatness. It is amazing to see what this man has overcome and how he has perservered throughout his 56-year coaching stint. With 408 victories under his belt, he is the all-time winningest coach in college football history at any level. He taught his players how to be champions both on and off the field. As a Grambling State University alumnus, and former Grambling Sports Broadcaster, I was fortunate to witness, first hand, what a class act Coach Robinson is. He transcends the word "committment". This autobiography takes you on a journey of overcoming obstacles on the road to success. I highly recommend this book to everyone, not just athletes, who want to understand what it means to perservere!

I'm a big fan of football, so of course i wanted to read, this book about Grambling's great coach. i'm a big fan of grambling except of course when they play Jackson state, or Alcorn. After reading the book, i found Eddie Robinson, to be a wonderful person who cared so much for his team, and his coaches. I felt bad for robinson when i read that a divison 1 school never even contacted him about a job, but what I liked best of all about this book, was he and his wife's Doris love for one another.
