I'm known as a recruiter. Well you've got to have chicken to make chicken salad.

Most coaches study the films when they lose. I study them when we win -to see if I can figure out what I did right

Sacrifice. Work. Self-discipline. I teach these things, and my boys don't forget them when they leave.

I honestly believe that if you are willing to out-condition the opponent, have confidence in your ability, be more aggressive than your opponent and have a genuine desire for team victory, you will become the national champions. If you have all the above, you will acquire confidence and poise, and you will have those intangibles that win the close ones.

I think the most important thing of all for any team is a winning attitude. The coaches must have it. The players must have it. The student body must have it. If you have dedicated players who believe in themselves, you don't need a lot of talent.

Hell, no! A tie is like kissing your sister!

I'm no innovator. If anything I'm a stealer, or borrower. I've stolen or borrowed from more people than you can shake a stick at.
