It's awfully important to win with humility. It's also important to lose. I hate to lose worse than anyone, but if you never lose you won't know how to act. If you lose with humility, then you can come back.

Recognize winners. They come in all forms.

Scout yourself. Have a buddy who coaches scout you.

When I was a young coach I used to say, "Treat everybody alike." That's bull. Treat everybody fairly.

I don't have any ideas; my coaches have them. I just pass the ideas on and referee the arguments.

It's kind of hard to rally around a math class.

If you don't learn anything but self discipline, then athletics is worthwhile.
