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.

You have to learn what makes this or that Sammy run. For one it's a pat on the back, for another it's eating him out, for still another it's a fatherly talk, or something else. You're a fool if you think as I did as a young coach, that you can treat them all alike.

I always want my players to show class, knock'em down, pat on the back, and run back to the huddle.

Motivating people- the ingredient that separates winners from losers.

Football games are generally won by the boys with the greatest desire.

I ain't won but one. My team won the rest in spite of me.

Be aware of "yes" men. Generally, they are losers. Surround yourself with winners. Never forget - people win.
