Eddie Robinson Award
From Varsity Pride
The Eddie Robinson Award is a college football award given each year to the nation's most outstanding Division I FCS coach as determined by a panel of media and sports information directors. This is not to be confused with the Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year award, which is a Division I FBS honor not associated with this award.
