Welcome to the online home of the Grambling Legends. Grambling State University emerged from the desire of African-American farmers in rural north Louisiana who wanted to educate Black children in the northern and western parts of the state. Today GSU is still regarded as the college “where everybody is somebody.”

We represent the important heritage of accomplished graduates of Grambling State University. Our members span all industries and include everyone from Hall of Fame inductees to successful executives. Grambling State University produced Tank Younger the first black from a HBCU to play in the NFL, Four NFL Hall of Famers (Willie Davis, Buck Buchanan,Willie Brown and Charlie Joiner), NBA Hall of Famer Willis Reed, Doug Williams the first black QB to play and win MVP in Super Bowl, and James Shack Harris the first black QB to start in the NFL.

We have committed ourselves to continue to grow the legacy of Grambling State University and its treasured memories. Past, present and future Grambling Alumni now have a voice. The Grambling Legends are here to develop fundraisers and other special projects to make sure that key objectives are met each year.

Thank you so much for visiting our website and come back often for updates, new member info, and upcoming events.
