There ought to be a special place in heaven for coaches' wives.

Recruiting is the one thing I hate. I won't do it unless my coaches tell me I've just got to. The whole process is kind of undignified for me and the young man.

The first time you quit, it's hard. The second time, it gets easier. The third time, you don't even have to think about it.

You never know how a horse will pull until you hook him to a heavy load.

Little things make the difference. Everyone is well prepared in the big things, but only the winners perfect the little things.

My approach to the game has been the same at all the places I've been. Vanilla. The sure way. That means, first of all, to win physically. If you got eleven on a field, and they beat the other eleven physically, they'll win. They will start forcing mistakes. They'll win in the fourth quarter.

Offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships.
