According to

the city of Grambling, La., with the help of Grambling Mayor Edward Jones and city attorney Pamela Breedlove, has sent a letter to the NCAA asking the governing body to strip former PSU coach Joe Paterno some of his victories -- he has 409 total -- so that former Grambling coach Eddie Robinson could reclaim the top spot in all-time Division I victories.

The late Robinson, who coached at Grambling for 57 years, won 408 games. The late Paterno's last win before he was fired last November in the wake of the Sandusky scandal was his 409th.

According to the newspaper report, Breedlove's three-page letter to the NCAA includes the following:

"Even thought it was done by outside counsel, the Freeh Report [PSU's commissioned report released last week] was the university's report,'' Breedlove said.

"It said what their employees, including coach Paterno, did wrong. We're hoping the end result of this is coach Robinson will get his record back so everyone will think a great man holds the record.''
