Bud Grant, Doug Sutherland Revisit Memories, Present Golden Footballs

SUPERIOR, Wis. — Hall of Fame Head Coach Bud Grant and Doug Sutherland, two of the 50 Greatest Vikings, proudly presented gold footballs to Superior High School recently as part of the NFL’s High School Honor Roll program.

The program was launched in conjunction with Super Bowl 50 to honor nearly 3,000 players or head coaches at more than 2,000 high schools. The recognition stretches coast-to-coast, includes 48 states, seven countries and one U.S. territory.

Grant, who was born in Superior in 1927, led the Vikings to four Super Bowls, an NFL Championship and 11 division titles.
