What player coached by Eddie Robinson at Grambling State University was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in the same year as Eddie Robinson was inducted into it ?

This is a great question!

Gary "Big Hands" Johnson, a Grambling defensive tackle of the early 1970s. Both he and Coach Robinson were inducted in 1997.

Thanks ! When I saw the year Robinson went in I just decided to run down the class and see if a Grambling player was in it... obviously "Big Hands" was !

Thanks for the answer !
