It already says that.
`C-h f grep RET':

    For doing a recursive `grep', see the `rgrep' command.
    For running `grep' in a specific directory, see `lgrep'.

There is already a template option for the old `grep'.
`C-h v grep-command RET':

    grep-command is a variable defined in `grep.el'.
    Its value is "grep -nH -e *"

    Documentation:
    The default grep command for M-g r e.
