I cannot remember the last time they successfully recruited an elite player against the SEC or the ACC.
I'll guess they have maybe two or three active NFL players, none of whom went in the first or second round.
Update:
I just checked ESPN.
They have two active players.
One, a third rounder, the other, an undrafted free agent.
Grambling used to get the African American players the SEC, especially LSU, wouldn’t recruit. Now LSU gobbles up all the best talent in Louisiana of all colors, and La Monroe and La Lafayette get the rest.
Grambling is an iconic program who’s time appears to have passed....
