Eddie G. Robinson Museum, Sports museum in Ruston, Louisiana, United States.
The Eddie G. Robinson Museum on Grambling State University's campus displays trophies, photographs, and memorabilia spanning decades of coaching work. The exhibits include equipment, uniforms, and personal items that tell the story of the football program's growth and achievements.
The museum was created to honor a coaching career that spanned several decades and transformed the football program at Grambling State. It was established years later to preserve this sporting legacy for future generations.
The museum tells the story of how African American athletes found success in college football and went on to play professionally. These narratives show visitors the lasting impact of the coaching program on both individuals and the broader sport.
The museum is located on the university grounds and requires advance appointment to visit. Plan your trip accordingly since visiting hours are limited and not available every day.
A large statue of the coach stands at the entrance to greet visitors as they arrive. Inside, you can step into a Locker Room Theater featuring original stadium equipment and recorded conversations with former athletes.
