yes this is a enormous loss for football. the thing i admire the most about him is that he never left grambling because he loved it there and he made it clear that he wasn't after fame. his intentions were to mold the lives of young men, and he wished to do so at grambling. i dont think there are many coaches that would settle for that position and never wish to move up into division 1 at a big program if given the chance. he definitely could have pursued this and probably would have ended up at a big program, but he stayed right there doing what he loved to do.
now that is admirable. RIP

He was a great man above all else. He was quoted as saying," My biggest accomplishment in life was having one job and one wife." Huge loss for football on all levels.
