95 is a good run. I will never forget my parents swearing at the television in the 70's when the Vikes were playing.

Lots of good memories. Coached the Vikings when they were legitimately good. RIP, and thank you.

Was it Grant that had his players practice standing for the National Anthem?

He was an awfully intense fisherman as well. Real decent guy. He was exactly how you saw him on the sidelines. His son Mike has been the head coach for the states football powerhouse prep team for a long time, refused offers from the collegiate level. Good people.

At 95 reading his bio he definitely lived a full life.
RIP Bud.

Remember well when he endorsed and showed up often in the Cabelas’s catalog wearing their cold weather duck hunting gear.

I liked Bud but I did catch him cheating in a fishing contest. I shouldn’t speak ill of the dead but puttin a piece of popcorn on a dry fly is defiantly beyond the pale.

I pray coach Grant is in paradise! He was a good man and I have a photo somewhere of me getting his autograph at Mankato State circa early 70's. Pert near had the entire team autographs back then!
