Mama wanted me to be a preacher. I told her coachin' and preachin' were a lot alike.

I think I'm telling the truth. I sat by Ray Perkins at the Hall of Fame dinner in New York, and at that time he didn't know he was our coach and I didn't either.

If you are going to be a successful duck hunter, you must go where the ducks are.

Get the winners into the game.

I didn't have a thing to do with picking a coach, and didn't want to. But I didn't think they'd pick one I didn't like.

They say I teach brutal football, but the only thing brutal about football is losing.

The idea of molding men means a lot to me.
