Eddie Robinson made it his mission to send a black quarterback to the nfl that wouldn't have to change positions. He accomplished that with James Harris

[@joecutietta2941]

Born Too Soon..He would have dominated today..

[@marquise7200]

Raiders drafted him and turned him to a wr they probably should’ve play him at qb

[@MonnyYell]

That offense looks like a modern day offense

[@ericmcgowan1993]

That's because HBCU coaches invented the "west coast offense"

[@ericmcgowan1993]

What position did Willie Brown play in college?

[@michaelhead2871]

[@michaelhead2871]
