Yes, In one of the Sorting Hat's songs he says that GG took the hat 
off his own head and "gave it brains" so the hat could continue to 
sort the students after the founders had left the school.  

As for the discovery made in CoS... Harry discovered a lot about 
Hagrid in that book.  The fact that Tom Riddle framed him, he was 
innocent and that Arogog exists.  I sure hope that the Hagrid is the 
HBP.
